It generates programming to support lifelong learning, and offers opportunities to make meaningful social, volunteer, and career connections. The Council is guided by the activities and decisions of the Office of Alumni Engagement, within the UNC Charlotte Alumni Association, and comprises a select group of alumni for a term of leadership and service.
