Where to Find UNH News and Alumni Stories

Updated

UNH Today is the University of New Hampshire's official source for news and stories, and it's the main place to follow campus developments and alumni achievements. It publishes items that "connect, inform, and inspire the Wildcat community and beyond," according to the university's own description. If you want current UNH news rather than admissions or program information, start there.

What UNH Today Covers

The news section mixes campus projects, donor recognition, and alumni milestones. Recent examples listed on the site include:

  • Campus projects — A mural by a UNH graduate unveiled as part of the MUB Dunkin' redesign (dated 10/06/2026).
  • Donor impact — Paul and Grayce Anderson honored with the Hubbard Award at the Evening of Distinction (10/05/2026).
  • Giving news — Mel Rines '47 making a $1M gift to bolster a key priority in the UNH Strategic Plan (09/29/2026).

These examples show the typical range: physical campus changes, awards and recognition, and major gifts tied to university priorities.

Finding Alumni Stories and Staying Connected

Alumni content appears within UNH Today rather than in a separate feed, based on the site structure. Stories tagged to donor impact and alumni achievements are the clearest entry point for the alumni community.

To stay connected, the university's main calls to action are:

Action What it's for
Apply now Prospective students starting an application
Request info Getting details before applying
Visit campus Planning an in-person visit
Read more stories Continuing into the UNH Today archive

The "Plan a Visit" link sits under the admissions and aid section, so campus visits are handled through admissions rather than the news pages.

How to Use the Site

  1. Go to the UNH Today section for the latest stories.
  2. Use the story tags or categories (donor impact, alumni) to filter toward alumni-focused content.
  3. For anything admissions-related — applying, requesting information, or visiting — use the admissions and aid paths instead of the news feed.

One practical note: the news items carry future-dated timestamps in the source material, so treat the dates as listed rather than assuming they reflect today.
