Young Alumni Committee Update
The Association regularly reassesses its programs, seeking to ensure effectiveness while maximizing value to the stakeholders. The young alumni demographic is critical to The Association, and we must have the best structure in place to successfully engage that group of former students. In January 2023, The Association put a “pause” on YAC while we review the program, reevaluate how we should engage young alumni, and explore ideas for creating a better structure moving forward. At this time, we will not have a 2023 Young Alumni Committee, but we look forward to finding new and better ways to engage with the young alumni demographic.
If you have any questions, please reach out to Ashley Giles ’15, manager of Class Programs and Constituent Networks, at AGiles15@AggieNetwork.com.
