Being a Titan is special. Even more so, if you are an alumni employee, also known as a Titan X 2.

At the University of Wisconsin Oshkosh’s three campuses more than 500 alumni work as faculty or staff.

“It is quite special that our alumni employees make up such a large percentage of the UWO workforce representing our three campuses,” said Christine Gantner, alumni relations director. “Not only do our more than 500 Titans x 2 alumni provide exceptional service to our students and University community, but also many further invest in their alma mater by volunteering their time and providing financial support via scholarships. We are grateful for this amazing group of Titans.”

Last week, the UW Oshkosh Alumni Relations office held its annual Titans X 2 breakfast, a gathering that allows the campus to show gratitude to its UWO alumni-employees. Turns out that these double Titans are just as appreciative of UWO.

“I am most thankful to UW Oshkosh for providing me endless opportunities to learn and grow professionally and personally,” said Angie Zemke, program adviser for fraternity and sorority life, who graduated in 2005. “I found a new career, met my lifelong friends, created a network of fellow alumni around the world, and have carried that Titan Pride with me ever since graduation. Being able to work for the institution that changed my life’s path is an honor and watching that institution continue to grow and thrive is so exciting. I know UW Oshkosh will continue to impact others the same way it did for me!”
