CCAA Advisory Board
The CCAA Advisory Board is the leadership group of the Alumni Association and is made up of alumni volunteers who are committed to the success of the CCAA. The advice given by this group is integral to the mission of CCAA, which is to foster lasting relationships with students, alumni and friends worldwide.
We officially meet three times a year – twice on main campus in Columbia, Missouri, and once virtually. Travel expenses for onsite board meetings are paid for by the college. Board members are also provided with weekly updates and communicate regularly with the Alumni Relations office to help increase alumni affinity with the college.
