Join Your Reunion Committee
Reunion Committee members work with Wesleyan staff to reach out to classmates to return for Reunion, share the latest updates, and raise support for Wesleyan in honor of their Reunion. It is a great opportunity to reconnect with classmates and to help Wesleyan at the same time. Let us know if you'd like to get involved!

Admission
Wesleyan Alumni Admission Volunteers (WAAV) support the efforts of the Office of Admission by representing Wesleyan at college fairs and interviewing prospective students. Volunteers help ensure that prospective students who lack the time and/or resources to get to campus have an equal opportunity to attach a personality to Wesleyan by virtue of their interaction with alumni. Volunteers also ensure that Wesleyan continues to attract and enroll students who represent various geographic, socio-economic, racial, and ethnic backgrounds.
-
Class Agents
Class Agents act as liaisons between classmates and Wesleyan, communicating regularly with members of their class and encouraging classmates to make gifts to Wesleyan through the Wesleyan Fund. Class Agents play an important role in the overall success of the Wesleyan Fund. Through letters, emails, or calls, Class Agents can help generate record-breaking class gifts and give everyone the chance to reconnect with Wesleyan.
