Alumni Council Nominations

The Swarthmore College Alumni Council is the governing body of our Alumni Association, leading initiatives that support students, alumni, and the College. The Alumni Council Nominating Committee is committed to selecting a slate of candidates that reflects the diversity of our alumni, considering factors such as background, life experiences, and engagement with the College.

Nomination Process

We accept peer and self-nominations year-round, which are valid for three years. If you wish to nominate yourself or a classmate, please use this form or email the Nominating Committee at acnominations@swarthmore.edu with your name, class year, the nominee’s name, class year, and the reasons for your nomination. The Committee reviews all nominations, considering factors such as professional background, those members rotating off the Council, field of study, College engagement, age, gender identity, race, ethnicity, and geographic representation. We aim to ensure the Council accurately represents the broad spectrum of Swarthmore's alumni.
