Homecoming 2008

The more things change, the more they stay the same.

As our graduates spread out across the country, they each share a common home in Presbyterian College, where the campus might have a few new buildings, but the PC bond is still strong. It's the place you found your calling, the place you made lifelong friends. the place where you've had some of the best times of your life! Come back and visit. Those good times are still here.

What every PC'un should know

Are you an alumnus ... an alumni ...?

Many graduates are confused by the terminology when speaking about alumni, so with apologies to the Honor Council, here is a little cheat sheet for everyone.

Alumnus - one male
Alumni - more than one male (pronounced “alum-n’eye’”)

Alumna - one female
Alumnae - more than one female (pronounced “alum-knee”)

Alumni - both male and female (pronounced as above)

For you chickens!
"alum" - one
"alums" - more than one
