Regions
Wesleyan has over 30,000 alumni spread out across the globe and it's not always easy to come back to campus. Regional groups help connect alumni and parents with each other, no matter where they are! Regional representatives, along with the alumni relations staff, work together to plan and implement a full calendar of meaningful events and programming for each region. Regional representatives serve as Wesleyan ambassadors, whether in-person, through email or on social media.

Admission
Wesleyan Alumni Admission Volunteers (WAAV) support the recruitment efforts of the Office of Admission. This includes virtual 1:1 conversations with prospective students, hosting small in-person gatherings of students at local public venues, and serving as virtual panelists to share their Wesleyan experiences with potential applicants. Volunteers are critical to ensuring students have ample opportunity to learn about the Wesleyan community. They 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. By writing letters, sending e-mails and making phone calls, Class Agents can help generate record-breaking class gifts and give everyone the chance to reconnect with Wesleyan.

Reunion Committees
Reunion Volunteers work with the Wesleyan staff to guide the planning and implementation of their class reunion celebration held each May. Reunion committee members encourage classmates to return for reunion, ask for gifts in honor of their reunion and share the latest Reunion news via print and electronic communications. It is a great opportunity to reconnect with classmates before Reunion and to help Wesleyan at the same time.
