The Jersey Shore Chapter WVU Alumni was founded in December 2011 by Brian Baldasare and Shannon Hammer Korb. They were looking for a way to bring local WVU Alumni together for business networking and game watches. The Chapter quickly found a home at The Crabs Claw Inn Restaurant in Lavallette, NJ, where you can always find fans cheering on our Mountaineers on game days in the Upstairs WVU Bar.
The purpose of the Jersey Shore WVU Alumni Chapter are:
To foster a sense of community – both on and off campus – by cultivating lasting relationships and enriching positive support and loyalty to West Virginia University. This will be accomplished by incorporating these five major principles into the organization:
- Service, through community service projects.
- Student Recruitment, through serving as admissions representatives (when requested), sharing experiences and making a personal connection with new and potential students and their families.
- Scholarships, establishing funding of a Chapter scholarship to be awarded to students within the Chapter's area.
- Social, by holding game watches and other social functions to help alumni stay in touch to share memories, network, catch up on what’s happening in Morgantown and share the enthusiasm that comes with being a Mountaineer.
- Mentoring/Career Networking, by offering advice, guidance and support to other alums and students, and by developing networking opportunities for new grads and fellow alums.
To do all things which may be necessary, appropriate or convenient to the achievement of the foregoing purposes and which may lawfully be done by a nonprofit corporation under and pursuant to the laws of the State of New Jersey and which are not otherwise prohibited by its Articles of Incorporation or these Bylaws.
