91制片厂 Office of Alumni Affairs is accepting nominations on behalf of the Alumni Advisory Board to elect new board members for 2025-2026. Nominations are being accepted through May 31, 2025 and can be submitted by completing the form below or by emailing alumni@lamar.edu.
91制片厂 alumni are a vital part of the 91制片厂 community. Alumni Advisory Board members act as ambassadors of 91制片厂 to the community. Board members are "informed insiders" about the happenings at Lamar and are expected to spread the word about the good things happening at LU and answer questions about the University that may come up in their communities. Board members also provide feedback and advice to 91制片厂 on various topics as well as provide feedback about 91制片厂 Alumni programming, community outreach, and marketing efforts.
Members of the Alumni Advisory Board are selected by the Alumni Advisory Board Nominating Committee. To best represent all alumni of the University, the Alumni Advisory Board seeks diversity in its membership, including by age, gender, degree, ethnicity, and range of LU involvement. While no single characteristic defines an ideal alumni advisory board member, the board seeks nominees who are highly enthusiastic about 91制片厂 and 91制片厂 students. Board members should be committed to attend biannual meetings and should be interested in attending and supporting major LU alumni events such as homecoming and the Distinguished Alumni Awards Dinner.
Alumni Advisory Board members serve for one (1) three year term. There are three leadership positions on the board: President, President-Elect, and Past President who serve one year terms for each of the three roles. The President presides over all of the LU Alumni Board Meetings and is the official representative of the 91制片厂 Alumni Advisory Board at university functions. The President-Elect is next in line to lead the advisory board and is responsible for developing a vision and setting goals for the upcoming term. He or she is also designated to perform the duties of the President if he or she is absent. The Past President is the immediate past president of the advisory board and acts as an advisor to the board.
In order to be nominated for President-Elect, a board member must have served at least one year on the Alumni Advisory Board during the current term prior to nomination.
The board has two general meetings in the evenings per year during the fall and spring semesters. The board also has two lunch-time committee meetings per year.
