UW Alumni Association

Get Involved and Stay Connected!

Alumni from across the country have made a positive impact for the University with student recruitment, alumni and student career support, scholarships and alumni participation in UW activities and programs.  I am excited to share that your Board has developed better ways to support these efforts—your efforts—in new ways!  We have integrated two new overarching structures, Brown and Gold Champions and the Brown and Gold Council, with our current alumni volunteer program to provide more ways for you to be involved and support the many UWAA activities. Therefore, we have four structures within which volunteers can participate:

1. Brown and Gold Champions – An individual supporting the UWAA in at least one priority area of work.
2. Networks – A collection of volunteers organized around geographic, affinity, academic or corporate connection to support UW. (2 leaders and a roster of 6)
3. Chapters – A more formal network with 3-5 leaders and a roster of 25 with a minimum of 15 being paid and active UWAA members.
4. Brown and Gold Council – Alumni leaders who are most closely connected to their individual communities, providing a strong personal relationship with UW’s friends and alumni worldwide.

As we develop these new programs together, we will be in a position to do even more to strengthen the bond between the University and fellow alumni and friends worldwide!

If you are already participating in UWAA programs, please continue—your participation is important! If not, I encourage you to re-establish your commitment to our students and to the University of Wyoming. If you want to get more involved as a Brown and Gold Champion and/or through the existing alumni network/chapter systems, or start one in your area, please call our office at (307) 766-4166 or visit appropriate sections below and complete the online Alumni Network Interest Form. Your voice is impactful and we appreciate your advocacy for UW around the world—the World Needs More Cowboys!

Best in Brown and Gold,
