Durham graduates become Durham alumni, but Chadsians never really leave Chad’s
Congratulations everyone! You’ve done it.
Whether you’ve spent the last few years studying, rowing, singing, volunteering, working in the bar, sharing meals in the dining hall, or simply finding lifelong friends, you’ve now reached an incredible milestone.
As you cross the stage at graduation, one chapter comes to a close but another begins. Graduating from St Chad’s isn’t goodbye. It’s your welcome into a community of more than 5,000 Chadsians around the world, and into Durham University’s wider alumni community of more than 220,000 graduates. Wherever life takes you next, you’ll always have a place here.
Our alumni community spans every generation, profession and corner of the globe, connected by the friendships, values and experiences that make Chad’s unique.
