ALUMNI BOARD OF DIRECTORS
2015-2016
The mission of the Alumni Association is to foster a spirit of loyalty and
connection between Campbell Hall and its 3,500 alumni around the world. The
Alumni Association serves its graduates by providing them with avenues to connect
with fellow alumni both professionally and socially. The Alumni Association
maintains a LinkedIn Alumni Professional Network page featuring a Job and
Internship Board. The Association also hosts a variety of mixers throughout the year
in locations such as Los Angeles, San Francisco, and New York City. The social
calendar culminates with the on-campus Alumni Reunion. Every May, graduates
enjoy the opportunity to reunite, reminisce and network in person.
The purpose of the Alumni Association Board of Directors is to promote an
awareness of Campbell Hall and its current programs. The Board is responsible for
encouraging volunteer service to their alma mater and providing social and
professional networking opportunities to alumni through various events and
programs. They also assist Campbell Hall in support of programs through
fundraising, outreach and community efforts.
