The University of Iowa Alumni Association April 2016
My name is Bailie Uppena, and my first year as a Hawkeye has
already provided me with many incredible opportunities—including
working at the University of Iowa Alumni Association (UIAA) as a
student intern.
Whether you graduated five years ago or 50, I’m sure you
remember what it’s like to be a UI student. Some aspects of the
Hawkeye experience never change, such as enjoying picnics on the
Pentacrest, cheering on the football team at Kinnick Stadium, and
living in the dorms with your peers.
Of course, the UI has also started some new traditions. These days, anxious students rub
the large “brain rock” on the T. Anne Cleary Walkway before exams for good luck. In the
spring, they rally on Kinnick’s turf for a dodgeball tournament that raises money for the UI
Children’s Hospital—a favorite annual event sponsored by the alumni association’s Students
Today, Alumni Tomorrow (S.T.A.T.) group.
As a UIAA life member, you have not only stayed connected with your alma mater, but
you’ve also influenced the lives of current students—like myself—as we navigate through
these four years on campus. The alumni association encourages grads to take the
Hawkeye spirit with them wherever they go, providing ways for alumni to support and
share their experiences with students through numerous UIAAsponsored events and
services.
