Join the Alumni Council

Bethany College Alumni Council members serve a three-year term. There are three officer positions (President, Vice President, and Secretary), and officer positions are two-year terms. Each member of the Alumni Council is expected to make a meaningful financial commitment to Bethany College every fiscal year.

BCAC meets as a large group at a minimum quarterly. Additional meetings may be scheduled as warranted. Outside of those meetings, additional work and meetings occur for the individual subcommittee that you may serve on. 

BCAC is split up into three subcommittees: Communications, Events & Engagement, and Giving. Below is a brief description of each subcommittee:

• Communications: Discover and implement channels to communicate and connect with Alumni and Friends of Bethany College
