About the UWAA
Board of Trustees
The Board of Trustees is responsible for managing UWAA affairs and setting the tone and direction for the association. Numbering at least 15 members, the Board sets policy for the UWAA, serves as ambassadors to the alumni community and the public, and advocates for higher education. In keeping with our mission of broad-based engagement, UWAA trustees represent a wide range of viewpoints, backgrounds and experiences.
