SMU alumni participate in the University’s recruitment efforts with summer send-off parties in Chicago and other cities.
In addition to revving up the horsepower for SMU student recruitment, alumni provide invaluable support in many other areas that truly makes a difference.
Alumni talent and energy are needed to:
- Help recruit students
- Be class giving ambassadors
- Participate in class reunions
- Get involved in local chapters
- Represent Hispanic alumni
- Represent African-American alumni
- Represent young alumni
- Mentor students
The new “I Am Involved” website streamlines the volunteer process. On the site alumni can view a description of each opportunity, a list of expectations and time requirements.
The online application procedure is simple: Select the “connect today” button; fill out the form, including first, second and third program or committee choices; and hit the submit button. A representative from Alumni Relations will follow up with each applicant.
“We are thrilled to have one central place where alumni can learn about how to get plugged in and volunteer with our alma mater,” says Marli Craig ’92, an Alumni Board member.
