The members of the Alumni Advisory Council (AAC) represent the diverse strengths, academic backgrounds, and professional accomplishments—as well as the wide geographic distribution—of alumni of the Weatherhead School of Management. Since the AAC first convened in June 2009, its members have made an important impact on Weatherhead by generating ideas, collaborating with school faculty and staff, and strengthening the alumni base. They have also generously volunteered their time to recruit top prospective students, guide employer development here and abroad, reach out to alumni for Annual Fund support, and build the Weatherhead network in domestic and international cities.
AAC members serve a three-year term and join various committees to assist with activities specific to their interests. Special thanks to all of our AAC members, listed here with their affiliations, for their leadership and continued contributions.
