Arizona State Young Alumni seeks council members

Arizona State Young Alumni (ASYA), a program of the Arizona State University Alumni Association, is seeking applications from ASU alumni under age 35 with strong event planning, public speaking, fundraising, community engagement and business development skills to serve on its Young Alumni Council.

The Young Alumni Council works directly with ASU Alumni Association staff members to produce ASYA special events and develop marketing strategies to broaden alumni participation. Council members provide guidance on how to advance the program, assist with the development of its initiatives and encourage involvement in the program by young alumni.

Jenny Holsman Tetreault, executive director of operations for the Alumni Association, said the ASYA council positions are a good opportunity for passionate, motivated young ASU graduates to gain leadership experience while having a great time connecting with their alma mater.

“Our current council members have been key to the group’s rapid growth,” she said. “We’re looking to recruit new members who will further the development of ASYA, and spread the message that it is a great place for recent graduates to blend their Sun Devil spirit with a passion for community and connection.”

The deadline to apply for the council is March 1. Applicants chosen to serve on the council begin their three-year term on July 1. Applications for the council are available online at http://alumni.asu.edu/groups/asya/council-application, or by calling 480-965-2586.
