AU Alumni Update

October-November 2005

 

A MESSAGE FROM YOUR ALUMNI BOARD PRESIDENT


Dear AU Alum-

There is no question that the last few months have been tough. We've heard from many alums, and want you to know that your voices do matter. In recent weeks, the Alumni Board has met with Gary Abramson, the new chair of the Board of Trustees, to express some of the concerns and opinions
of our fellow alumni, particularly on the subject of board governance. I am communicating with others on the Board of Trustees as they begin to
form governance and other committees to ensure that there is representation from alumni in those groups. We are also working to get a permanent, voting
representative from the Alumni Board on the Board of Trustees, and we look forward to working with the rest of the university community as we focus on governance issues going forward.

For the latest information regarding issues of Board governance, campus
statements, and to express your thoughts about AU's future, please visit the new
Governance Web site. There you will find links and contact information
for the Board of Trustees and other university groups. For a listing of your
alumni board members or to contact any of us, please visit (link to alumni page
listing board members).

As always, thanks for your involvement and support as we continue to move forward.

Best,
Carey Earle,
SOC/BA '88
