Alumni Leadership

ALUMNI EXECUTIVE BOARD
The Alumni Executive Board keeps alumni informed and involved in the happenings at MUS. Its purpose is to promote and support MUS, to deepen the loyalty of the alumni, and to encourage a mutually beneficial relationship between the school and alumni. Members of the board are involved through their work on five committees: social, civic, athletics, admissions, and nominations. 

The Alumni Executive Board vice president serves as the chair of the nominating committee and conducts business on behalf of the president in his absence.

CLASS REPRESENTATIVES
Class Representatives serve as direct links between MUS alumni and the school. The reps are responsible for providing leadership and general direction for their class campaigns and reunions. Primary responsibilities include recruiting a phonathon committee, corresponding with the class, and collecting news and photos on classmates for the Alumni Office and MUS Today. If you are interested in becoming a Class Representative, or helping in any way, please contact the Alumni Office.
