The George Mason University Alumni Association was established in 1968 to strengthen George Mason University by engaging alumni through fellowship, programs and services that encourage active participation in the university community.
In February 1977, at the initiation of its Student Affairs Committee, the university's Board of Visitors authorized the formation of a joint Alumni Relations program with an office on campus and a Director of Alumni Relations selected by the association and the university administration.
From 1982 to the present, the university and the Board of Visitors have had an agreement with the association to provide a home for the Alumni Association on campus in an interdependent relationship.
During the 2005-2006 academic year, a group of students was selected to work with Alumni Association board members. Students who are part of this group called the Student Alumni Partnership are chosen based on their interests, academic standing, and the ability to match them with an appropriate alumni partner.
The George Mason University Alumni Association is committed to strengthening the relationship between the alumni and the university community. It also values the role of communication and cultivation in engaging alumni in academic, social and philanthropic activities and works closely with faculty, staff and administration of the university and their work in preparing Mason’s future alumni.
Today, the association sponsors or co-sponsors various alumni events including,
but not limited to, sporting/cultural events, regional events, graduation event, a hospitality tent at the Virginia Gold Cup races, and the Celebration of Distinction awards dinner.
Membership in the George Mason University Alumni Association is free and open to all Mason graduates.
