Since its launch in late July, the alumni office’s UP Switchboard has grown to over 650 users, which is a record launch, according to Switchboard founder Mara Zepeda. UP Switchboard is an online networking platform where University of Portland students, alumni, faculty, staff, and parents can go to offer what they have and ask for what they need.
