Alumnae/i Association Steering Committee 2012–13
LASSMATES and other Concord Academy alumnae/i often
ask me about what the Alumnae/i Association actually does. The word Association offers a somewhat passive image; however, alumnae/i volunteers are active and involved in a variety of roles that add value for the entire school community of students, faculty, and alumnae/i. For example, the Alumnae/i Community and Equity Committee recently sponsored a fantastic event for alumnae/i and students, featured on page 35. In another area, alumnae/i admissions interviewers trained with admissions staff and then interviewed prospective students on Saturdays throughout the fall and winter months. If these students are accepted, alumnae/i are among the first voices to welcome them to this community! Rewarding opportunities exist for so many of us to continue our relationship with CA. I’d love to hear how you would like to get involved.” (joseivanroman@gmail.com)

Spotlight on Alumnae/i Admissions Interviews
“I really enjoyed interviewing applicants for CA this fall; the kids and parents were all smart, interesting, and open just the way I remember them from my days at Concord. It was great to spend a Saturday connecting with such talented, bright students and answering their questions about a place that, frankly, changed my life. As an alum, it feels good to know that while the students may change every year, CA’s values — common trust, enthusiasm, a love of learning — stick around.” — Sarah Green ’00, Alumna Admissions Interviewer
