Los Angeles Blue Hen Network
Los Angeles Blue Hens and friends can connect with each other through events and the Los Angeles Blue Hen Network Facebook Group for camaraderie, networking, local advice and recommendations and sharing their mutual love for the University of Delaware.
Join local events, organized by UD Blue Hen ambassadors in your region, that range from happy hours to family-friendly ice cream gatherings and museum tours to cheering on your favorite sports teams at the stadium. Many events are sponsored by the UD Alumni Association (UDAA), which allows them to be offered at discounted rates.

Favorite UD memory:
My favorite UD memory actually took place before I was even accepted to the University. In the summer of 2005 my mother and I toured about 15 college campuses all along the East Coast. UD was the last one on the tour. It was probably the hottest day in the summer and I was definitely not used to the Delaware humidity. We walked past Raub Hall (hospitality program building) and decided to pop in. We were greeted by air conditioning and Donna Laws, who was the Chair to president of the program at the time. In full hospitable fashion, Donna offered us lemonade while she informed us about the program. This was my decision-making moment—
I wanted to be a Blue Hen! Donna was my guiding light for the next four years. I am forever grateful for her mentorship.

Fun Fact:
Since I was a science major when leaving the library instead of rubbing the Morris statue for good luck my friends and I would touch a poster of Steven Hawking that was near our standard study spot.
