Alumni Volleyball Team - Update The Ohio Alumni Volleyball team had a very good 1st month of the season. The team won all three of their matches against Cornell, West Virginia, and Carnegie Mellon University. And only dropped one game out of the nine games played. Bread for the City - recap We had 15 alumni participate in our volunteer day with Bread for the City in January. This was our 3rd straight year volunteering with Bread for the City.
