Making connections between students and alumni in the pursuit of service and leadership.
The Student Alumni Ambassadors are an organization that builds bridges between UW-L students and alumni through events and programs. When students leave UW-L, the Alumni Association serves as a lifelong connection back to campus.
The Student Alumni Ambassadors meet every other Tuesday evening at 8 p.m. during the school year at the Cleary Alumni & Friends Center. Each member is one of five committees which include: Fundraising/Smiles from Home; Community Service; Constitution/Recruitment; Socials and Student/Alumni Events. The elected executive members and chairs of each committee make up the Leadership Team which meets every other Tuesday evening (opposite of the regular meeting) at 8 p.m. during the school year at the Cleary Alumni & Friends Center.
