last decade to keep them engaged and actively involved with the university.
“We were very pleased with the continued interest in this initiative, further proving
that our alumni want to stay actively engaged,” said Biggs. “Members are selected
on the basis of their former campus involvement, professional experience and community
engagement, taking into consideration a broad representation of class years, geographic
location, ethnic diversity, and gender.”
Biggs said the council advises the Office of Alumni Relations and assists with developing
programs and communications tailored to the newest alumni. It also acts to shepherd
the development of volunteers and future leaders in ways that deepen their commitment
to Southeastern and prepare them for active alumni leadership roles.
Members are selected from a body of former students who have graduated from Southeastern within the last 10 years. They serve a two-year term with the option of serving two terms.Thursday,
