March 27 Forum & Webcast

On Monday, March 27th, there was a forum in Boston to discuss the proposed Constitution from the Alumni Governance Task Force. This was organized by the Association of Alumni, and the Alumni Council, the two bodies that convened the AGTF, and asked them to make recommendations regarding Alumni governance. The AGTF members present (on the panel) were: Jim Adler '60, Trevor Burgess '92, John Daukas '84, Martha Hennessey '76, and Bill Hutchinson '76. All members of the audience received a copy of the latest draft of the constitution. The discussion lasted about 90 minutes, and was moderated by Rick Routhier '73, Alumni Council President. 136 Alumni participated in the forum; 89 in person in Boston, 47 online via live webcast. The Dartmouth covered the event; you may also view an archive of the forum webcast, by clicking here.

You are welcome to post a comment here, but much of the discussion is occuring on the AGTF blog, where you will also find responses to questions that (for lack of time) were not covered during the forum. You may also email the AGTF directly at agtaskforce@alum.dartmouth.org.



The Dartmouth Association of Alumni was organized in 1854 to represent all Dartmouth alumni.

This blog was created to provide a forum for open dialogue on alumni association issues.
