Dear Minutemen,

The "Night of Champions" will be a great way to get to know your Minutemen face to face AND get excited about the 2013 football season.
There will also be a FREE autograph session for you and your guests with our players and coaches at 6:00 PM.
Seating is limited, so please RSVP by replying to this e-mail. Include your name and how many people will be in your party.
Yesterday, at the UMass Pro Day at Gillette Stadium, I ran into graduated Minuteman great, Jeromy Miles. He's the subject of our fourth MINUTEMAN UPDATE:
Hi! This is Jeromy Miles. I graduated from UMass with my bachelor's degree in kinesiology in the spring of 2010. After graduating, I signed with the Cincinnati Bengals as a college free agent. I have just finished my third season with the Bengals, and I'm currently still on the team. I've been spending this off-season training hard and spending time with my fiancee in Worcester. I'm looking forward to being blessed with another full season in the NFL.
I am also working diligently to build up our alumni database. Please email my Administrative Assistant, Joann Chauvin jchauvin@admin.umass.edu with your updated email, phone, and address. If you know of any "lost" alumni, please pass along their information to our office.
Go UMass!
