11 Things Doug Shipman Loves about Being an Emory Alumnus
Doug Shipman 95C shares his thoughts on how to strengthen the Emory community through engagement and giving. He also shares his favorite Emory memories.
This spring, students across campus are invited to share what their Emory experience has meant to them through EmoryThanks stations. Students can record short video messages, snap photos, or write handwritten postcards that will be shared with Emory supporters.
EmoryThanks is a celebration of philanthropy and the donors who make the Emory experience possible. By participating, students help connect campus life with people whose generosity supports scholarships, research, programs, and other opportunities across the university.
Last year’s stations collected 89 student videos and more than 2,200 postcards, creating deeply meaningful moments for both students and the alumni, parents, and friends who received them. Whether it’s a quick thank‑you, a favorite memory, or a reflection on what brought you to Emory, every message helps tell the story of how philanthropy shapes student life.
Your Emory story matters, and participation is easy — just stop by a station, take a few minutes to share your experience, and you’re done. No preparation required. You’ll find EmoryThanks stations at various locations across campus April 4–23. For more information, visit the EmoryThanks web page.
