Alumni Leaders Council

About the Council


The Rutgers Alumni Leaders Council is an assembly of volunteer alumni leaders, including members of the RUAA Board, leaders of the chartered alumni organizations, at-large members, and university partners who share in the RUAA’s vision. While the council’s members are involved with the RUAA and the university in diverse ways, their membership on the council does not represent any individual group or interest, but rather serves the entire alumni body. The council officially convenes twice annually, at the Alumni Leaders Conference and the Annual Meeting. The council is also responsible for ratifying the slate of RUAA Board officers and board members annually.
  • Alumni Leaders Conference: Generally held on campus in the fall, the conference is a two-day event where council members gather to share best practices and new ideas in alumni engagement, network with each other and university leadership, and build action plans.
  • Annual Meeting: The spring annual meeting is an opportunity for council members to review the RUAA’s efforts from the past year, as well as celebrate achievements and look forward to the future. The results of the RUAA Board election are also  announced at the annual meeting. Attendance is open to all Rutgers alumni.
