How to Start a Chapter


Chicago Skyline at Night

Only in Chi-Town

It's no surprise that the third largest city in the country has a large concentration of AU alumni who call it home. A great blend of city, business, leisure, surf, and frigid winter temperatures, this Midwest mecca offers a lot of great activities for area alumni.

Thanks for your interest in our Chicago Alumni Chapter!

The Chicago Chapter strives to have fun, while cultivating a life-long commitment to American University through a diverse range of quality social, cultural and professional events while working with other alumni groups to create meaningful programs to enrich the lives of alumni in the Chicago area. Recent events have included a Faculty on the Road with SPA Professor Robert Carroll in December and the Patriot League Mens' Basketball Championship game watching party in March.

Interested in getting involved with the Chicago chapter?

Just email Suzanne Smith, SIS/BA '07, assistant director of alumni programs, with your grad information, address, phone number, and email, and you'll be plugged in to all the AU Chicago Chapter activities. It's really that easy.
