Members of the Alumni Association at their Annual Meeting- June, 2007

The COA Alumni Association (COAAA) was founded in 1982 to support College of the Atlantic and promote communication between the college and its alumni as well as between its members.

Join the Alumni Association

- Every individual that has ever graduated from or attended classes at COA is considered an alumnus/a, and is eligible for active membership in the COAAA.

How to Join

- Instead of a separate membership fee, the COAAA has decided to link its membership to the college's Annual Fund. That means when you make a gift to the Annual Fund your membership in the COAAA will be activated.

Benefits of Active COAAA Membership Status include:

~The right to vote at the Alumni Association's Annual Meeting in June and nominate yourself or others to serve on the Governing Board.

~Receive the new quarterly Alumni email-newsletter.

~Keep in touch with old friends through regional gatherings and an online database.

COAAA Governing Board

The COAAAGB meets once a month from September-June, ending the year with our Annual Meeting. The Governing Board facilitates the mission and objectives of the Alumni Association. We organize local alumni events, assist with fund-raising efforts, update contact information, work to improve alumni communication services and develop new ways to serve and engage our alumni. We also introduce COA seniors and students to life as Human Ecologists after COA by inviting them to events and introducing them to the larger alumni community.
