The Council welcomes applications year round. We are currently accepting applications from alumni in the classes of 2014-2024. Applications will be reviewed each year in May and new members will be notified by the end of June.
GOLD Council Facts The GOLD Council is made up of 25 members from the classes of 2013-2023. It meets three or four times a year, with two meetings (one in the Quad Cities and one in the Chicagoland area) taking place in person.
Members sit on one of three committees that each meet month:
• Marketing and Social Events plans events for GOLD alumni, assists other committees with marketing and promotion needs, and develops marketing strategies to target GOLD alumni.
• Engagement and Recruitment develops a diverse community of young alumni by recruiting and recognizing members and promoting active participation on the GOLD Council.
• Professional Development fosters personal and professional growth by organizing networking events and building relationships between alumni and current students.
