Young Alumni Board
Meet the Young Alumni Board

The Butler University Young Alumni Board is a dynamic group of recent graduates living and working in Central Indiana dedicated to strengthening current students’ university experience while fostering lifelong connections among alumni. Volunteers serve three-year terms, meeting regularly on campus to plan inclusive and engaging events that support Butler’s growing Bulldog family.
To effectively connect with and serve both existing students and graduates, the board is structured with three dedicated task forces focused on:
- Alumni Engagement: Building and nurturing relationships among graduates.
- Fundraising: Supporting Butler’s mission through financial contributions.
- Student Connections: Bridging the gap between current students and alumni.
Board member commitments include attending in-person quarterly meetings, actively engaging in one of the task forces outlined above, and continuously supporting university activities and initiatives.
To learn more about the Young Alumni Board and related opportunities, please contact the Office of Butler Community Engagement and follow the Butler Alumni Association’s social media channels.
Stay connected with Butler by updating your contact information. You’ll be the first to know about exciting alumni events and opportunities!
