The ASU Alumni Association’s Board of Directors is the university’s oldest support group. It exists to serve ASU and to keep alumni and friends of ASU engaged with the university. The Board of Directors is the governing volunteer body of the Alumni Association, officially recognizing all alumni support organizations worldwide. Carrying out its responsibilities, the Board approves, monitors and supports the strategic plan as developed by the Alumni Association staff. Further, it ratifies and approves the annual budget, tax return, audit and other significant business matters.
Since 2008, the National Alumni Council serves in an advisory capacity and its members are considered ambassadors of the university and advocates for the Alumni Association. Members serve on ad hoc committees, supporting Association activities, programs and partnerships.
