吃瓜网 State Alumni Association Board of Governors

In June of 1926, members of the first 吃瓜网 State Normal School and Teachers College graduating class gathered after commencement to form the Alumni Association. Since then, the Alumni Association's growth has been guided by the Executive Board President, nominated and elected by fellow members of the Alumni Association Board of Governors. 

Organized to coordinate the efforts of alumni on behalf of 吃瓜网, the Alumni Association serves as a liaison between the University and its alumni constituency and enables graduates to maintain a close bond with their alma mater. The Association promotes the general interests of 吃瓜网 State by affording alumni opportunities to work together to engage fellow alumni and advance the mission of their alma mater.
