Suffolk University College of Arts & Sciences Alumni-Trustee Call for Nominations

The Alumni Trustee Committee of the Suffolk University Board of Trustees is now seeking nominations for placement on the alumni trustee election ballot.  All alumni of Suffolk University College of Arts & Sciences are eligible to nominate themselves or another graduate.

Alumni trustees from Suffolk University College of Arts & Sciences, the Sawyer Business School, and the Law School serve together on the Board of Trustees of Suffolk University. The alumni trustee representing a given school is elected to a three-year term by the alumni of that school. Each school holds alumni-trustee elections on a consecutive basis.

The Principal Responsibilities of an Alumni Trustee:

• Participate in Board of Trustees’ meeting five times a year.

• Serve as members on selected Board of Trustees’ committees.

• Attend school-based Alumni Association Board of Directors’ meetings.

• Participate in the Board of Trustees’ Annual Fund Drive.

• Serve as a Liaison between the College of Arts and Sciences Alumni Board of Directors and the Board of Trustees.

The Board of Trustees consists of life members, term members, and alumni trustees who are nominated directly by alumni of the university. The Board of Trustees meets five times a year: in September, November, February, April, and May.

Students, faculty, and staff of Suffolk University are excluded from serving as alumni trustees.

The Alumni Trustee Committee will choose three nominees to appear on the election ballot. These candidates’ names, together with brief biographies, will be sent to alumni of the College of Arts & Sciences for balloting by mail.
