About the Alumni Association
Mission
To support ULM in “changing lives”, the Alumni Association connects, engages, and
fosters relationships with current and future alumni to one another and the University
through communications, events, and programs.
History
Organized in 1952, the ULM Alumni Association is an independent, non-profit organization
whose purpose is to promote the welfare of the university through friend raising efforts
aimed at cultivating an engaged and mutually beneficial relationship between ULM and
its growing community of alumni, students, faculty and stakeholders. We provide and
support alumni programs and services, facilitate communication with alumni and seek
to strengthen alumni bonds of fellowship, professional association and university
affiliation. We encourage alumni to stay connected and serve as advocates for the
university. We leverage the resources, talents, and initiatives of alumni and friends
to advise, guide, advocate for and support the Association and the university in achieving
their respective missions and goals. We affirm the value of human diversity and the
enrichment it brings to our lives and acknowledge our differences, rejecting all forms
of prejudice and discrimination. We value integrity, honesty, and ethical behavior
and strive to maintain a working environment that is built on mutual respect, understanding
and freedom of expression.
The Alumni Association draws its membership from over 65,000 living graduates worldwide
and adds more chapters and clubs each year. Events hosted by the Alumni Association
chapters and clubs bring alumni, friends, faculty and staff, and future students together
to share the ULM experience throughout the year.
Note from the Director...
Our new 5-year strategic plan prioritizes renewed focus on engagement and increasing
visibility of alumni & ULM; cultivating new relationships and partnerships in the
University and local community; and directly connecting with each of you. The Alumni
Association could not be what it is without you and your accomplishments. You are
living proof that ULM changes lives. I challenge you to be an integral part of the alumni journey. How? Stay connected – follow us on social media and ensure we have your correct information for events
and campus news! Get involved - attend an event, submit your Good News, nominate an alumni business for Business
of the Month, volunteer with us, find your place in the alumni journey to give back!
Change the Future with us – join the Alumni Association, participate in a networking event, hire a Warhawk,
become a chapter or club leader, start a scholarship award, sponsor an event!
It begins with you. We are here and look forward to changing the future together.
