Nazareth’s Office of Alumni Engagement will annually publish requests for alumni, faculty and staff to submit the names of interested and qualified individuals for consideration for vacant posts on the Alumni Advisory Board.

As the representative body of the Alumni Association, the Advisory Board’s membership should reflect the diversity of our alumni population. As such, the Board should include members from at least five different decades, and a diversity of identities, including, but not limited to: race, ethnicity, religion, gender, and sexual orientation, ability. Additionally, membership should also represent diversity in occupation, fields, and professional affiliations. The ideal candidate for the Board will have demonstrated involvement in the college, a creative and visionary mindset and the ability to fulfill the duties and expectations of the Board. 

The Membership Committee will review and approve interested and qualified candidates to serve on the Executive Committee. A member of the Alumni Engagement staff, along with the Chair, will review and appoint members for the Alumni Advisory Board at large.

It is the expectation that members of the Advisory Board will:

• Attend regular meetings.
• Participate actively on ad-hoc committees when the opportunity arises
• Contribute to the Nazareth Annual Fund. 
• Assist in the identification and recruitment of potential board members.
• Attend and be visible at campus events when possible.
• Identify and help cultivate alumni to be engaged with the college.
• Keep informed of institutional news. 
• Serve as advocates for Nazareth University in their communities.
