Alumni Board Applications
Shape the Future: Become a Board Member
Are you passionate about Hartwick? Do you want to make a real difference in the lives of current and future Hartwick students? We encourage you to consider joining the Alumni Board!
Welcome, Hartwick Alumni!
We're excited to announce the opportunity to nominate someone or apply for positions on the Hartwick College Alumni Board!
The Board plays a vital role in connecting alumni with the College, supporting current students, and shaping the future of Hartwick.
What's the Difference Between an Associate and a Director?
Associates: Support the Board’s work on specific initiatives and committees. Being an Associate provides a more flexible commitment to the College while still deepening your connection to Hartwick’s past, present, and future. Many choose this path to gain experience (as a potential Board member or as a future leader) and build their resume. We recruit and fill these positions all year long.
Directors: Hold voting positions and have a broader leadership role on the Board. Being an Alumni Board Director is a four year commitment, renewable twice. Directors generally join at least one committee, which meets monthly to accomplish Board tasks. The Alumni Board meets three times a year (either in person or on Zoom) and spends many hours between meetings fulfilling each committees’ mission. Open Director seats go through our standard election process, which includes a full vote from the alumni body.
