Constituency Chapters . . .
Everyone's a Lobo!

Constituency Chapters are formed out of a common college, department or university experience. Oftentimes, students make their strongest bonds with those they took classes with, played next to in the band, or campaigned with during elections. Constituency groups offer alumni an opportunity to continue these relationships after graduation.

Architecture and Planning Chapter

Chartered in March 2001, the School of Architecture and Planning Chapter was founded by a group of dedicated and motivated volunteers. Armed with a charter and a strategic plan, the SAAP Alumni Board of Directors seeks to connect alumni and future alumni.

The Board published its most recent edition of the SAAP Alumni Newsletter, Central Perspectives, in May 2009. It can be viewed at saap.unm.edu. The chapter offers continuing education programs and meaningful opportunities for alumni to participate on board committees.

For information, contact Jan Bandrofchak at 505-277-6442 or janban@unm.edu. Or, if you would like more information, or would like to volunteer, contact
Makita Hill at 505-277-0943.
