Toward Meaningful Connection

Uniting a Global Network of Jayhawks

KU is big. For some, overwhelmingly so. The Alumni Association makes it smaller  more welcoming, more fun and more fruitful.

The Student Alumni Network helps to recruit new Jayhawks and, most importantly, makes students at home on the Hill. Students know what’s happening across campus, attend members-only events and receive access to mentors. They feel they belong in this vibrant community.
