ACTS OF SERVICE THROUGH THE ALUMNI COUNCIL Under the leadership of President John Houde MED’92, the Alumni Council has spent the past 18 months refreshing the structure of the council through the renewal of its bylaws, building out affinity programming with student affinity group leaders, and forging a path to enhance meaningful connections between alumni and students. Through this work, we’ve redeveloped the following Alumni Council committees: Alumni Affinity Group—serves as the council’s leaders to each of the identified active affinity groups. They encourage and develop programming that engages all alumni and students and ensures the Alumni Council represents and provides value for all constituents. Leadership Annual Giving—strives to actively increase participation of alumni in annual giving, and leadership giving program the Health Leaders Circle. Student and Alumni Engagement—helps facilitate opportunities for direct interaction between students and alumni, to provide advising, networking, and mentoring to individual students or to student groups and organizations.
