Friends of the Board
The Costello Alumni Chapter recognizes alumni who seek deeper engagement as Friends of the Board. These alumni demonstrate their commitment by participating in events and meetings throughout the year and staying connected to Chapter initiatives. Friends of the Board are welcome to participate in any of the Chapter’s industry and affinity groups and are encouraged to join a committee for deeper involvement. While they do not hold voting rights at Chapter meetings, Friends of the Board play an important role in strengthening the alumni network and supporting student success.
