About VCAN
The Villanova Communication Alumni Network (VCAN) connects undergraduate and graduate alumni working in all areas of communication—advertising, radio, TV, film, graphic arts, journalism, marketing, media, academia, public relations and more. Through networking and professional development events, as well as opportunities to mentor current Villanova students, VCAN invites alumni, faculty and others in the Villanova community to engage in innovative programming relevant to the communications profession.
