For most recent information, visit Alumni Association Council

The Alumni Association of Grinnell College was established in 1879 with 151 charter members. Today the association, headed by the Alumni Council, includes more than 18,000 active class members living in every state of the union, various U.S. territories, and 68 other countries. The alumni volunteers--class agents, fund directors, heritage chairs, regional planning committees, alumni admission representatives, career development volunteers, and reunion committee members--all work to encourage support for the College. The College provides its alumni with such services as The Grinnell Magazine, coordination of regional activities, promotion of regular class reunions, alumni awards, and classletters.
