Start a new Mortar Board alumni chapter

If there isn’t an alumni chapter in your area and you are interested in starting one, the Mortar Board National Office can help.  Simply e-mail your level of interest and information about your city, and the National Office can help you contact alumni in your area.

Why start an alumni chapter?

  • Proximity – There are approximately 200,000 alumni living in cities all across the world, and it is likely some of these alumni are near you!  The National Office can use our comprehensive list of these alumni to help you to develop a new alumni chapter. 
  • Meet new people – These groups can help you get to know others in your area, whether you are new to the city or are just looking to expand your social horizons.
  • Help a collegiate chapter – You can develop relationships with collegiate chapters, attend programs, hold joint events and assist with initiation
  • Expand your Mortar Board experience – You can execute service projects and continue your Mortar Board experience beyond your senior year of college. 

Alumni chapter requirements

  • Compile a list of at least five members
  • Select a chapter president and treasurer
