HKS Alumni Board Mission

Alumni Board of Directors

The Board of Directors of the John F. Kennedy School of Government Alumni Association is a group of twenty alumni elected by their peers who seek to connect alumni with each other and the KSG, with special concentration on the services and programs of the Alumni Programs Office. Board members volunteer their time to plan and implement projects that benefit KSG students and alumni. Occasionally, the Board also advises the KSG on alumni activities and communications, academic and research initiatives, student recruitment, professional placement, and development.

Board members meet twice a year. The first meeting is usually at KSG in the Spring; the second, in the Fall, is held in a city with a large concentration of alumni. At the Fall meeting, the Board plans its projects for the year ahead. Between meetings, Board members work on their projects via conference calls and email discussions.

Please see the main Board page of this web site for a list of the current Board members and links to their biographies and to their email addresses.
