The Office of Alumni Engagement is developing Alumni Community Groups, an all-new digital space aimed at enabling alumni to find community in the New School Network. Through this virtual
forum, members can connect with peers, post news and updates, support and access alumni businesses, and more. These newly launched Alumni Community Groups will offer alumni opportunities to get involved in event development, volunteerism, and philanthropic
initiatives designed to foster pride, build a sense of belonging, and support The New School and its diverse constituents. By organizing these groups, we seek to promote connections between New School graduates and to deepen alumni relationships with
peers, students, and the university across schools, shared identities, affinities, and geographical locations.
Activities we foresee Alumni Community Group members participating in include:
- Identifying, initiating, and supporting activities that encourage belonging and pride in alumni communities and The New School
- Sharing postgraduate experiences and expertise with the New School community by partnering on virtual events
- Connecting with Alumni Community Group members in the New School Network through conversations, exchanges of ideas, and updates
- Taking part in New School public programs and alumni engagement events
- Serving as mentors, volunteers, and supporters
Leadership Committees
As membership in Alumni Community Groups grows, we will seek volunteer leaders to advise on and plan virtual events and initiatives. If you’re interested in learning more or joining Leadership Committees for Alumni Community Groups, please contact
alumni@newschool.edu for information on how you can get involved.
