La Salle University : Ambassadors

Advancement Departments

The Explorer Ambassador Program was designed to promote La Salle University, its interests, goals, and traditions, to students, parents, alumni, and friends of the University. Student Ambassadors help these various groups remain connected to La Salle by functioning as liaisons. The Explorer Ambassadors will represent La Salle at university functions including alumni receptions, homecoming, reunions, Parents' Weekend, and other special events designated by the Ambassador Executive Board. They are committed to the proposition that students’ involvement in and support of La Salle University should not end with graduation.

You are a La Salle Ambassador at an alumni class dinner during Reunion Weekend. An alumni/alumnus approaches you to express their dismay with a situation going on at La Salle. (It could be anything that they view as negative) How do you respond?

You are an Ambassador at an away (off-campus) alumni reception talking to an alumni/alumnus that has not been back to campus in over 5 years. What are some of the highlights of the campus community and atmosphere that you would like to share with them?

You encounter the parent of perspective student at an event. The parent asks, “Do you feel safe at La Salle?” How would you respond?
