Every fall, Wheaton welcomes alumni volunteers to campus to celebrate their dedication and service to the college community. Alumni Leadership Weekend provides engagement and professional development opportunities for members of the Alumni Board of Directors, Mary Lyon Leadership Society, and the 1834 Society.

At this two-day event, alumni ambassadors:

  • Celebrate and honor fellow alumni volunteers
  • Get exclusive updates and insight from Wheaton’s senior leadership
  • Engage with renowned guest speakers who share their expertise
  • Hear from current students and tour the campus
  • Learn new tools and resources to grow their volunteer network
  • Network and exchange ideas for personal and professional development
See last year’s schedule of events below and stay tuned for our 2024 plans.
