Board of Directors
Our Board is composed of true philanthropists who’ve given their time, talent, and treasure to the University of North Dakota.
The UND Alumni Association & Foundation’s Board of Directors provides strategic direction and governance to the 501(c)(3), nonprofit organization. Task forces within the board, based on professional expertise, provide ongoing advisement. They are elected every three years and serve maximum three-year terms.
Their dedication to UND is greatly appreciated by the UND alumni family, as well as our administration, faculty and students.
