The Alumni Council
St. Lawrence’s Alumni Council takes pride in its reputation on campus,
with
senior staff and with fellow alumni as one of the most effective and respected
organizations of its kind. The group is comprised of 34 elected members and
two to four student delegates, and has as its mission to serve as ambassadors
of the University to its audiences, to serve the
University in the areas of admissions, career
services, development, events planning and
communications, and to serve fellow alumni by
providing alumni perspective to the University.
Alumni consider themselves “Laurentians for
Life,” cherishing the sense of community that is
engendered at the University.
“The Council has been an excellent sounding
board to the Trustees as well as senior staf f,
faculty and the total alumni body. The Council
president facilitates dialog by serving as a
delegate to the Board of Trustees and preparing
periodic reports for the Trustees’ review and
presentation at each Trustee Board meeting.
It is a tribute to the collective spirit and dedication
to the University and the Council has become
a well-regarded function of the University’s life.
The Council is broad-based and has been recognized
by many comparison schools as the model
to emulate.”
—Joseph Richardson ’63, GP’06
President of the Alumni Association, 2002-2004
“The attitude of shared vision between President
Sullivan and the AEC is a significant component
of the surge of quality and reputation enjoyed by
SLU over the last eight years. I hope that any
candidate for the position of President of SLU would both expect and encourage
the continued spirit of shared vision between the University and its
alumni.”
—Jeffrey D. Honeywell ’80, P’10,
President of the Alumni Association, 2004-2006
“I tell all new Council members this message: ‘Your
service will matter.
St. Lawrence has one of the strongest alumni councils in the nation and
I know you’ll be an important part of maintaining that strength.’”
—Alexandra Kirby Taylor ’89,
President of the Alumni Association, 2006-2008
