The Emerging Leaders Program is designed for MUS alumni five to 13 years after graduation. A part of the D. Eugene Thorn Society, Emerging Leaders is intended to identify young leaders from the MUS community, strengthen the school’s ties with these alumni, and help build toward the school’s future.

Emerging Leaders has several programs each year that give young alumni the opportunity to hear from members of the MUS community and Memphis business and city leaders while connecting and networking with fellow MUS alumni. We encourage input and suggestions from alumni of all ages to help the program evolve and develop. To insure that you receive all invitations to Emerging Leaders events, please send your current contact information, including email, to the Alumni Office.

The membership levels for Emerging Leaders are as follows:

Class of 2018$100
