At the KU Alumni Association, our impact is only as great as our diversity. This is realized through our values in how we Appreciate the Unique. We believe our differences are strengths, all humanity has value and all Jayhawk belong. We are committed to cultivating an Association that models inclusion and respect. We celebrate and support the rich tapestry that makes our Jayhawk community uniquely ours.
The University of Kansas Alumni Association is proud to receive the 2024 Alumni Association Inclusive Excellence Award from Insight Into Diversity magazine, the largest and oldest diversity and inclusion publication in higher education.
The award honors alumni association programs, culture and initiatives that encourage and support diversity, inclusion and a sense of belonging for all alumni, regardless of racial or ethnic background, sexual or gender identity, religion, socio-economic status, world view and more.
The KU Alumni Association is proud to represent and support our global network of Jayhawks worldwide by celebrating and promoting our diversity: a rich tapestry of what makes us unique.Â
The KU Alumni Association is committed to cultivating leadership through inclusion and diversity. We recognize the value of ideas provided from a multitude of life experiences and backgrounds, understanding the limitless possibilities when all are welcome and heard.
The mission of the KU Alumni Association is to lead with a commitment to inclusion, nurturing a sense of belonging within our community. We bravely reimagine the future together and boldly innovate to continue raising the standard for Jayhawk Excellence.
Our affinity networks are a collection of alumni connected by shared identities, experiences and backgrounds. These networks provide an avenue for alumni to sustain their connections and build community through the KU Alumni Association.
The importance of mentoring for personal and professional growth is well established across many realms, including higher education. Mentors play especially critical roles in helping historically marginalized students gain access to colleges—and adjust and thrive in these new environments.
The KU Alumni Assocation believes alumni mentors are vital to the success of our current Jayhawks.Â
