Driving Creighton's future
As the advisory board for the Alumni Association, the group:
- Represents alumni interests to the University
- Supports the University’s strategic initiatives
- Provides program and service direction to Alumni Relations
This is true of myself and so many other alumni I've spoken with: We almost all feel that our Creighton years were some of the best of our lives. There's something special about the Creighton experience. As a Board, our mission is to energize alumni to continue their Creighton journey, while also giving back and paying this experience forward to the next generation.
