The University of Media, Arts and Communication (UniMAC) is restructuring for
effective operational excellence. Part of this restructuring, as stipulated in the
University’s Statutes, Statute 54, states among other things that, the Director of Public
Affairs shall be responsible for the ‘Management and coordination of alumni activities
such as liaising with the association, preparing alumni newsletters and publications, and
setting up range of engagement activities with the Alumni.’

As part of efforts to align Alumni Relations to the University Statutes and consolidate
the rich heritage, collective strength, and distinguished legacy of our great university,
the Directorate of Public Affairs of the University of Media, Arts and Communication
(UniMAC), in collaboration with the Interim Alumni Executives of the Institute of
Journalism (IJ), Institute of Languages (IL), and Institute of Film and Television (IFT),
is undertaking extensive consultations and collaborative engagements aimed at bringing
all alumni associations under one unified and formidable umbrella, the UniMAC
Alumni Association.

This strategic initiative is driven by the shared vision of building a stronger, more
influential, and well-coordinated alumni front that will enhance networking
opportunities, deepen alumni engagement, promote University development, and
create a powerful platform for advocacy, mentorship, collaboration, and national
impact.

In view of the above, we earnestly encourage all existing alumni bodies, executives, year
groups, chapters, and individual alumni across IJ, IL, and IFT communities to
wholeheartedly champion this unifying agenda and mobilise their members to actively
come on board in support of the formation of a consolidated UniMAC Alumni
Association.

We therefore call on all alumni to embrace this vision with unity, commitment, and
renewed purpose as we work collectively toward securing one strong and vibrant
UniMAC Alumni Association for present and future generations.
This is the moment to strengthen our common identity and position our alumni
fraternity as a formidable force for progress, influence, and transformation.
Together, let us build an alumni association that truly reflects the spirit, diversity,
excellence, and aspirations of UniMAC.

Nana Efua Rockson (Ms.)
Director, Public Affairs
