New board members will be introduced to the most recent class of Ford Scholar Alumni on Saturday, July 8, 2017, at their outgoing conference at the Valley River Inn in Eugene. They will serve through July 2019.
Candidates who were not elected for this year’s board have been invited to join the FSAA Board Committees (Board Development, Communications & Outreach, and Events & Community Service) as non-board members. We would like to extend this invite to all alumni of the Ford Scholar, Ford Opportunity and Ford ReStart programs to be a part of the FSAA board committees as non-board members. This is a great way to learn more about the FSAA board and gain valuable professional development experience. If you are interested in learning more or want to join a board committee, please email communications@fordscholaralumni.com.
