The Alumni Advisory Council serves in an advisory role to the President, and helps us develop and further relations with Columbia’s constituencies. The Council helps plan our annual Alumni Reunion, recognize alumni whose service has gone above and beyond the call, and ensure that we have resources to support you on your journey after you graduate.
