The Terry Scholar Alumni Advisory Board (TSAAB) is comprised of Terry Scholar Alumni who have distinguished themselves in their service to the Foundation and to their fellow Terry Scholars.
These individuals represent the Foundation at Terry functions, such as banquets and picnics, and participate in discussions about strengthening and supporting the Terry Community.
Members of the Terry Scholar Alumni Advisory Board serve three-year terms, with members rotating on and off in January each year. The Advisory Board meets three times (virtually) each year, with opportunities for committee activities in between.
Read Terms of CommitmentThe Foundation recognizes that it is important to have an Advisory Board that reflects the diversity of the scholars it represents, including university attended, gender, ethnicity, age, and career path as well as life experiences. Each of these aspects ensures a wide range of perspectives and skills to provide better advice, drive innovative and creative solutions, and enhance decision-making in the best interest of the Terry Scholar Community.
