Association of Yale Alumni Board of Governors
Drawn largely from the representative body of the AYA Assembly, the Board of Governors works with the University administration and the AYA staff to set priorities for and guide the work of the AYA. The group was established following the formal adoption of the AYA Constitution in 1972. Made up of 25 elected members and a number of members ex officio, the AYA Board accomplishes much of its work through several focused committees such as the Club Committee and the Constitution Committee. Elected members serve three-year terms, and the Board’s four officers – Chair, Vice-Chair, Secretary, and Treasurer – serve one or two-year terms.
