Alumni Halloween Party: Halloween-in-the-City
More than 120 SMU alumni and friends turned up on 31 October for a night of games, fun, spooks and thrills! It was a sight to behold - the craziest and wildest costumes, motley crew of teams competing in beer pong competitions, and drinks flowing like honey. The DJ spinning awesome music complemented the night of merriment! Photos will be uploaded shortly.

Time: 8.00pm to 1.00am
Venue: University Lounge (SMU Administration Building)
Beer Appreciation for SMU Alumni
More than 30 alumni turned up at The Queen and the Mangosteen (at Vivocity) on the evening of 26 March to learn how to become beer aficionados. Organised by the SMU Alumni Association, the event featured Archipelago Craft Beers. Its Brew Master took the enthusiastic group through the exploration and discovery of beer brewing, making and finally the enjoyment of the 7 variants of the Archipelago craft beers – Samui, Sayang, Straits, Travellers, Apsara, Islander and Trader’s.
Sumptuous finger food accompanied these fine beverages. But none could be more important than good company among friends.

Events in 2008
Alumni Reunion-in-the-City
The evening of 3rd October 2009 saw more than 250 alumni come together at the city campus for a celebration. Organised jointly by the SMU Alumni Association (SMUAA) and the Alumni Relations Office, the event, Alumni Reunion in the City, was especially meaningful as it was also an occasion to present the SMUAA Honorary Alumnus Award. SMU management and faculty were present to welcome alumni back to the university.
The celebration was held at the new University Lounge at the Administration Building. The lounge, located on the 6th level, resembled a jazz cum chill-out bar, boasting a small bar, a large-screen TV, comfortable sit-down areas and a foosball table that unsurprisingly proved popular with the guys that evening.
The night’s entertainment was provided by three bands familiar to all alumni – The Stageit! Hommies, 7 Till Dawn and Guitarissimo.
Mr Neil Yang, Graduating Class of 2008 said, “This is what we were looking forward to – great music, great drinks, great company.”
