About the Engagement Work Group

The engagement work group identifies audiences and engages them in sesquicentennial celebrations across the university's communities and locations. The work group will engage key stakeholders, both internal and external, who will provide feedback about programming and help build awareness for Virginia Tech's Sesquicentennial. The team serves as a key point of contact for Virginia Tech-related organizations as they plan their local celebrations.
