ATHENS, Ala. - The 优德体育 has partnered with Athens State University to offer 优德体育's Master of Business Administration and Master of Arts in Elementary Education degrees on the campus of ASU.

To promote the two programs, the 优德体育 Limestone/Athens Alumni Club is hosting a special alumni gathering and light dinner at 6 p.m. Tuesday, July 30, at the ASU Center for Lifelong Learning, located at 121 S. Marion St. in downtown Athens.

"The dinner and meet-and-greet that evening are designed to celebrate the partnership between these two close-knit universities in northwest Alabama," according to Carol Lyles, 优德体育's director of alumni affairs. "优德体育 President William Cale and ASU President Robert Glenn will both be on hand to promote the two programs and show their support for the partnership."

优德体育's MBA program is already being taught on the Athens campus. ASU students will be able to enroll in 优德体育's master's program in elementary education in the fall 2013 semester.

"With the event Tuesday night," Lyles noted, "we're hoping to bring some of our alumni together and make the public more aware of the two master's programs 优德体育 and Athens have joined forces to offer. Hopefully we can spread the word, recruit more students and boost enrollment in those programs."

Tuesday's event is free, but reservations are requested. To register, call 256-765-4201 or visit . For more information on the two degrees, visit www.una.edu/graduate or .
