Jack Huguley ’72 has experienced quite a bit of change during his 10 years as the College’s director of alumni relations. He’s served under three presidents, attended the ribbon cuttings of many significant additions to campus (e.g., the Addlestone Library, the new science center and TD Arena) and has seen the alumni ranks grow by more than 20,000.
This fall, Huguley retired from the College, leaving behind an impressive legacy of alumni engagement and signature events. Under his watch, the College increased the number of alumni chapters to 40, with new chapters established in cities across the country and around the globe (including London and Hong Kong).
The College community can also thank Huguley for elevating the elegance of the Alumni Awards Gala and for the creation of A Charleston Affair – the once modest get-together of less than a few hundred has become a grand spectacle that, held in conjunction with the Alumni Association’s annual meeting each spring, attracts more than 5,000 alumni to the Cistern Yard.
“The College is forever indebted to Jack for his many years of service,” says President Glenn McConnell ’69, “and we are certainly a stronger institution for his commitment and undeniable love for his alma mater.”
