Stay in Touch

Brilliant Ycard.

As a staff member at Yale, you are invited to network with your colleagues and stay in touch with campus news and events.

Stay in touch with colleagues

Building a strong network is important to your career at Yale. Make time to connect with your colleagues. Here are a few ideas:

Send a Yale Greeting Card (Ycard)

Make a colleague’s day: say “Happy Birthday”, “Congrats”, “Thank You”, and more. Learn more and send a Ycard.

Let’s do lunch

With so many green spaces around campus, pack lunch and connect with a colleague or dine at one of New Haven’s many restaurants or Yale’s dining establishments.

Join an affinity group

Yale affinity groups are a great way to connect with colleagues. Yale’s special interest groups host social events, career building workshops, volunteer activities, and speaker series, to name a few.

Get involved

Volunteer for your department’s green team to get to know others who you may not work directly with every day. Other opportunities include helping to host a department-wide United Way fundraising activity or getting involved with a university-wide event such as commencement–to name just a few.
