Alumni History Project

The Moravian University Alumni History Project is a special opportunity for alumni to share their favorite stories and most cherished memories from their time at Moravian. In partnership with Publishing Concepts, Inc. (PCI), Moravian will collect alumni stories over a six-month period beginning in late August 2026.

Alumni will be invited to call a dedicated 1-800 number and speak with a professional call taker and interviewer who will record their story. The stories will be compiled into a hardbound keepsake book celebrating the experiences and memories that make the Moravian community special.

PCI is a family-owned business based in Dallas, TX, that has published directories and history publications for educational institutions, fraternities, sororities, and military organizations across the nation for more than 100 years.

We encourage alumni to share stories that are meaningful to them. You might talk about a favorite place on campus, a professor who inspired you, friendships you made, meeting your spouse or lifelong partner, or how Moravian prepared you for your career and life today.

Think about what comes to mind when you reminisce about your college days in Bethlehem. We want to hear the stories and memories that are most meaningful to you.

Beginning in late August, watch your mail and email for communications about the Alumni History Project. You will receive postcards and/or emails from PCI with a dedicated 1-800 number.

When you call, you will speak with a professional call taker and interviewer who will verify your information and record your story. You will also be asked whether you would like to submit photos to accompany your story.

The calling period will last six months, through February 2027, so you will receive multiple postcards and emails and have several opportunities to participate.
