Carve out a little corner of your time to assist with an initiative you feel may be beneficial to our alumni. Your treasure is your talent and whatever else you possess and are willing to share with us. Let us know what you can do to assist. Click here
Class Reps
Be the first to know what’s going on. Disseminating information is always easier when all hands are on deck. The alumni association is requesting 2-3 people from each graduating class to volunteer to spread the word on events or alumni updates to their respective classes. Many classes are known to have WhatsApp or some form of social media group as a means of keeping in touch with each other. Help us get the news to all. Class reps are also free to attend any executive meeting should they desire to attend or voice suggestions. If you wish to assist in this regard please click here .

COMMITTEE ORGANIZATION
Committees aid an association by providing its organizational structure. Responsibilities are clearly defined and allow for effective governance and task completion. It affords an association the opportunity to utilize specific talents and knowledge of its members. It encourages participation of more members that can execute objectives and goals in an expeditious manner by dividing up the work of the association. Although committees primarily function in an advisory capacity there are times they may be called on to make decisions and recommendations. All committees will have a chair and co chair who will spearhead specific commissions knowledgeable of its responsibility, scope of authority and timeline constraints.
