We'd love to share your news, achievements and milestones with your fellow Tiffin University alums. Examples might include current jobs, promotions, births, marriages, etc. Or please share your favorite TU music photos or stories (within reason!) to be published here. Please email your alumni news to gig@tiffin.edu.
Thank you, alumni...
On behalf of our students and staff, I would like to thank all of our alumni for the work you did to lay such a strong foundation for the TU Music Department. This program has come a long way musically, in size and in scope, and the 150+ students who are members in our 14 current ensembles owe it largely to you for your past contributions, dedication and efforts. You were here before we had rooms to rehearse in, before we had much (if any) equipment, before we outgrew our performance spaces, before there were music classes or degree programs, before anyone received academic credit for ensembles and lessons, and before there were any real traditions to look back on. Now as our touring groups -- not just a cappella groups, but rock bands, hip hop groups, singer-songwriter acts, afrobeat bands, and who knows what will come next -- head around the region, we are blessed to get to perform for alums and longtime friends, and proud of having taken it to the next level in recent years. Now as we move forward into building our ProMusic major to be one of the leading commercial performance degree programs in the nation, we look back at the department's origins, and are very grateful to you all. This page and this site are for you -- a way to get current info on what's going on in Tiffin, and a way to look back on your experiences. We'd like to feature alumni stories and news, so please do share your life and career with us! Here's looking forward to whatever the future of Tiffin Music holds, and to your continued role in supporting it. Please do stay in touch, reconnect, or whatever it takes to stay part of our program. And please let us know if there's anything we can ever do for you. Warmest regards, Brad
