About the RPTM Alumni Group

The RPTM Alumni Group is an Affiliate Program Group chartered by the College of Health of Human Development.   Affiliate Program Groups (APGs) are chartered by their college or campus alumni society. APGs are similar to societies, with the exception that this connection is focusing on the promotion and development of the academic department rather than the entire college or campus. Some APG activities include networking, mentoring, and student recruitment. An Affiliate Program Group (APG) consists of alumni or friends of Penn State who have a common interest in a particular academic, professional, or extracurricular activity that is related to a specific college or campus program.

The RPTM Alumni Group strives to unite alumni of the Department of Recreation, Park and Tourism Management and the College of Health and Human Development, to strengthen the professional reputation of the major, and to provide a means for alumni to connect with fellow alumni, faculty and students.

The Alumni Group sponsors programs and activities in four areas:

Mentoring

Participating in the College of Health and Human Development Mentoring Program; sponsoring career panel discussions and career-building workshops for students.

Awards

Nominating alumni for College of Health and Human Development awards.
