The Indiana State University Office of Alumni Affairs establishes programs to promote a positive relationship between the alumni and the University and to represent the interests of alumni on campus. It is a part of the ISU Foundation.

Providing services for over 75,000 graduates and former students, the Alumni Office serves as headquarters for the Indiana State University Alumni Association, a dues paying organization coordinated by a 30-member Alumni Board of Directors. The individuals who serve on the Board of Directors are elected by alumni of the University on geographic and demographic bases. The Alumni Board of Directors is responsible for nominating two of the nine members of the University’s Board of Trustees.

Alumni are informed of University and alumni matters through The Indiana State University Magazine and the ISU Alumni Association electronic newsletter. The Student Alumni Association, sponsored by and working with the Alumni Office, serves as a link between students and alumni.
