UW Alumni Association Raises its Voice

The alumni community is diverse. That's why the Board of Trustees formed a legislative action committee to assist the nonprofit's efforts. Alumni and supporters are encouraged to contact the committee with ideas and suggestions at lac@uwimpact.org. UWImpact conforms to state and federal legal guidelines for lobbying and other advocacy activities by nonprofits. It's a resource that can be used by anyone who supports higher education and wishes to communicate that message to others.
