Alumnae Relations

The Alumnae Relations Committee facilitates relationships with our alumnae to support Wharton Women and help current members continue to grow. Committee members interview the alumnae network and post their insights on the Wharton Women website, create mentorships between undergraduate students and alumnae, plan our Industry Insider speaker series, and oversee the annual alumnae Homecoming Brunch.
