Why should you join up?

Gulls join the general Alumni Council for many different reasons. Director, Alumni Relations, Tory Pilbin ’14, M’15 says, “Many are looking to reengage with the College and they want to have a voice when it comes to alumni-specific strategies. Others are looking for a networking opportunity where they get to meet and work with alumni of various backgrounds, industries, and class years.”

Susan Dowling ’72 says, “I joined the Alumni Council seven years ago because I believe in giving back, and being a part of this group gives me the opportunity to do that and make a difference.”

What does the Alumni Council look for in new members?

Pilbin says, “We would describe a good fit as an alumna/alumnus who is excited to provide insight into alumni-specific strategy and feels confident to be a representative for their class. We are also looking for alumni who are willing to volunteer with the Council throughout their terms and have experience in—or at the very least understand—the importance of both alumni engagement and alumni philanthropy. Other qualities that are helpful in members are great communication skills, organization, willingness to help others, willingness to contribute financially to Endicott, and creativity.”Alumni Council members at the Silent Auction.

A term on the Alumni Council is three years and it consists of three meetings per year, which are held on campus. Members in good standing can continue for a second term if they would like. Attendance is required, however virtual attendance is available. Outside of meetings, the commitment consists of attending events in your area, responding to emails, some committee work, and helping with events like Reunion Weekend and the annual silent auction. Anyone who would like to apply must be willing and eager to take on those responsibilities.

How do you apply?

Pilbin says, “Candidates must . Some candidates are nominated to apply by academic deans, or staff in the Office of Student Affairs, Office of Institutional Advancement, or in the athletics department. Other candidates apply on their own after seeing the marketing sent out from the Office of Alumni Relations. All applications are internally vetted and then brought to the Alumni Council for review.” Applications will be open through the end of May and new terms start July 1.
