BOG Committees

Committee work and special alumni meetings are crucial to the effectiveness of the AYA. Alumni and University concerns are reflected in the subjects adopted for discussion and study. Like the Assembly as a whole, the committee and group meetings permit the examination of complex issues and facilitate the flow of information between the alumni and University officials.
