Alumni Board
The UNC alumni board is a group of alumni leaders who advise the university's alumni outreach and engagement strategy. They serve as university volunteers and represent the alumni association in reaching and supporting the success of current students.
Board members represent a diversity of class years, academic programs, professions and experiences. They are selected based on their backgrounds and existing volunteerism as active alumni leaders. Board members are invited to serve a 2-year term of service, which may be renewed for an additional term.
