Groups Alumni Association Board

Meet the Groups Alumni Association Board members

Groups Alumni Association Board members initiate and review programs, events, and activities of the affiliate group. We communicate with you and plan events for students and alumni.

Do you want to help? If you’re interested in leadership, we hope you’ll drop one of the board members a note. We’re glad to have you as part of our IU community.

Allow us to introduce ourselves—and then take a moment to introduce yourself to us!
