Legacy & Commitment
At Assumption, legacy means family. Many of our alumni share their love of the University with their children, grandchildren, siblings, and relatives. Pierre’s Pup Club is one way we celebrate this important tradition by introducing our youngest Greyhounds to the spirit of Assumption early on.
By joining, families strengthen their connection to Hound Nation and continue a cycle of pride and tradition that spans generations. Assumption is committed to nurturing this bond by offering unique opportunities for legacy families to engage with the University, creating lasting memories for both alumni and their children.
