Affiliate Organizations

To provide the high quality programs and information U-M alumni expect, the Alumni Association has partnered with a number of alumni affiliate groups. The Alumni Association recognizes that alumni have a strong desire to engage with one another based on connections they may have had as students’ connections based on race, ethnicity, gender, religion, and professional or social interests. Affiliate groups provide alumni with an opportunity to interact and network with others based on similar interests and experience.

If you have questions or would like to get involved with the Affiliate Relations Program, contact Kellie Durham, manager of alumni and affiliate relations, at durhamke@umich.edu or 734.763.9752.
