Student Alumni Ambassador

The Student Alumni Ambassadors are an official student organization of the WKU Alumni Association.  Ambassadors are selected based on campus involvement, academic performance, and a desire to promote the WKU Spirit.  Our students provide an extra measure of hospitality to current students, donors, and alumni. We place great significance on promoting WKU and communicating the importance of alumni support.  Ambassadors work closely with the Alumni Association and various community groups to promote WKU.
