Alumni Council
What is the Alumni Council?
The Alumni Council is a group of volunteer leaders who serve the Association in
advisory capacities to help fulfill the mission and strategic plans of the university,
as determined by the Board of Trustees and administration. To better represent the
interests of young alumni, or Graduates of the Last Decade (GOLD), the position of
GOLD president was added in 2019.
