Alumni Benefits
You spend only a few years on campus, but you’re a Yalie for life – and you enjoy the benefits that go with it. That includes alumni events on and off campus, access to a global network of regional Yale clubs as well as shared interest group and professional school chapters, educational and travel opportunities, and Yale communications such as YaleNews and the Yale Alumni Magazine.
YAA Board of Governors
The chief advisory body for our association, the YAA Board of Governors sets the direction and goals for the YAA Assembly delegation and the association at large. The board leads alumni initiatives, recognizes outstanding volunteers and organizations through several award programs, and helps to build the leadership pipeline for the university as a whole.
