Volunteer Leadership

The Alumni Association organizes alumni, students, supporters and friends and directs their time, talents and resources to best serve the University. Modes of volunteer service include the Executive Board, Alumni Council and Past President's Council. The Alumni Council and Executive Board support the Alumni Affairs office in carrying out the Alumni Association’s mission.  These groups supply endless volunteer hours and financial resources in hosting events locally and regionally.

Executive Board

The Executive Board, also known as the Board of Directors, consists of the President, President-Elect, Immediate Past President and Vice Presidents who are selected from the Alumni Council by a special nominating committee. The Executive Board typically meets monthly and brings matters needing a vote to the full council for a decision.
