Our time at Michigan defined who we are both personally and professionally, and we are always looking for alums who want to join our team and give back to the school and community that gave us so much. We have a number of committees for every interest and expertise – described below – that you can get involved with.
Whether you have ideas for events, want to join our board, or simply want to help in any way you can, please visit our open opportunities on Alumni Volunteer or contact us at lgbtq.alumni@umich.edu. We’d love to have you on our team. Go Blue!
