The CMU Alumni Association Board of Directors is a dedicated group of alumni who serve as university ambassadors and representatives of the CMU alumni family (that’s you!). The board supports continued alumni engagement through events, networking opportunities and programs; engages in fundraising efforts; and helps maintain the connection CMU Chippewas have to their alma mater long after they graduate.
