Shared Interest Groups


Through its many programs and services, the AYA provides opportunities for alumni to connect and reconnect to the University, serves as a channel of communication between alumni and the University, and promotes support of many types for the University. This work is accomplished through the traditional building blocks of clubs, classes, and graduate and professional school alumni associations, as well as through affiliations created through shared interests. Such interests may stem from be student activities or associations while at Yale, or through a common vocation or avocation. These alumni connections complement the work of clubs, classes, and graduate and professional alumni associations.

The following is a list of contact information for shared interest alumni groups in existence or in formation. If you are interested in learning more about any of these groups, we encourage you to contact the alumni designated below. Alumni active in other shared interest groups may contact Kameka Dempsey or Nicholas Roman Lewis at the AYA to add their group to this listing.
