The AAB is a vital part of EGL — a group of alumni who actively support the student experience and help guide the future of the program.

What Is the AAB?

The EGL Alumni Advisory Board connects alumni with current students and the student society.

Originally an advisory group, the AAB has been elevated through a new charter to become an active partner in shaping programming, supporting leadership development, and strengthening the long-term continuity of EGL.

Why the AAB Matters

The AAB plays a key role by:

• Supporting mentorship and TiL programming

• Advising the student board and helping maintain institutional continuity

• Sharing industry insight and professional expertise

• Strengthening alumni engagement and community

• Supporting major initiatives such as Volunteer Abroad and fundraising efforts

Through these efforts, the AAB helps ensure EGL remains a strong, evolving, and well-supported community.

How the AAB Engages

AAB members contribute by:

• Participating in student-facing events and workshops

• Offering mentorship and career insight

• Supporting leadership development programs

• Connecting alumni across regions and industries

• Partnering with the student board throughout the year

Their involvement provides students with guidance, perspective, and consistency.
