African American Alumni Council
Welcome to VCU Alumni’s African American Alumni Council
VCU Alumni’s African American Alumni Council instills pride among alumni in both the university and the council and promotes the growth and contributes to the recruitment and retention of the African American student body.
This resource contains information about council meetings, officers, Reunion Weekend and other council activities. The website is another way for us — VCU’s African American alumni and students — to stay connected. Please bookmark this website and come back often!
Read a welcome letter from AAAC President, Daniel Brisker (B.S.’09).
