| Overview |
|
(OLA) was approved by the Executive Board in fall 1989 as the Alumni Association's first self-defined group. It serves to facilitate the relationship between the College and its lesbian, gay, bisexual, and transgender alumni, and to increase the visibility of lesbian, gay, bisexual, and transgender persons and concerns in the life of the College. OLA coordinates an alumni reception during Commencement/Reunion weekend, and sends an annual newsletter to alumni. A representative serves on the Alumni Council.
