By jbiegel

Some sports teams never make it to a championship, much less win it. But, for the Elon Men's Soccer team, winning the "big game" has become a custom. For the past two seasons, Elon finished first in the Southern Conference, most recently defeating Wofford with a 2-1 score to claim the 2012 title.

Ask an Alum: What is the Young Alumni Council?

By Dave Dziok

This piece is the first in a series of “Ask an Alum” columns that will be periodically published online through a partnership between Elon University’s Young Alumni Council and The Pendulum. As graduation approaches on college campuses each year, the all-too-common reaction for seniors is to feel that one’s college career — and one’s connection to campus and the university in general — is coming to an end. While certainly true to the extent of classes being completed and not having access to campus dining halls and meal dollars, one’s relationship to their alma mater should only strengthen, not become more distant, after graduation. In 2007, Elon University’s Young Alumni Council was created by a dedicated group of volunteers to ensure that Elon placed a proper focus on communicating and engaging with the university’s sizable and ever-growing young alumni population. Having expanded to 35 members since its humble beginnings, the Council is comprised of Elon alumni who graduated within the past 10 years.
