Alumni Association

Maryville College Alumni Association (MCAA)

The Maryville College Alumni Association (MCAA) is comprised of MC graduates and all MC attendees who were enrolled at least one year and left in good academic standing. The purpose of the association is to facilitate alumni engagement with each other and the College while also promoting the interests and mission of the College. The MCAA currently has more than 9,000 members. The MCAA Board is the governing body of the MCAA. The Board meets twice annually, once in the fall and once in the spring.

Board members are responsible for keeping the MC Alumni Office and College administration informed about the alumni opinion. They also serve in a leadership role by encouraging fellow alumni to remain engaged with the College in areas including student recruitment, alumni relations, marketing, volunteering and fundraising. The primary fundraising role of the MCAA board is its annual support of the Maryville Fund, which assists to fund annual operating expenses of the College.

Alumni Association Taskforces

The Maryville College Alumni Association adopted a taskforce format in 2020 to remain nimble and responsive to the needs of MC and the Alumni Community. All members of the MCAA board serve on at least one taskforce, but taskforces are not limited to just board members and all alumni at large are welcome to join! Participating on an MCAA taskforce is an excellent way to engage with the College and other alumni. Read about the mission and purpose of each taskforce below and email alumni@maryvillecollege.edu to get involved.
