Trailblazing Alumni CAS News September 12, 2016

The College of Arts and Sciences is proud to introduce our inaugural alumni board. These outstanding graduates will take the lead on building relationships with our 30,000 alumni—who live right here in our back yard and across the globe.

Our board members graduated from a variety of programs at UAB and were students during different eras. They’ve also pursued careers in a wide range of fields. Their broad perspectives and connections will only enhance the profile of the College as we grow our programs and platforms.

Board President Wesley Calhoun is profiled in the fall issue of our Arts & Sciences magazine. Learn more about him and his vision for the board and the College alumni community.
