“When I was asked to serve on the Alumni Council, I said yes because of what Carroll provided to me personally but also because of the increased opportunities to connect with other classmates and the multiple ways I could support Carroll besides just writing a check.”

Ann Laatsch ’88

“The Council provides critical support to the Office of Alumni Engagement and the Division of Institutional Advancement in the alumni engagement process, including helping to plan events, recognizing accomplished alumni through the Distinguished Alumni Awards, and creating opportunities for alumni to connect and engage with current students.”

Tanya Atkinson ’93

“Carroll was a springboard to my professional life, offering me academic excellence as well as incredible mentors who equally supported and pushed me. Simultaneously, coming out in college, I found my personal belonging in the LGBTQ+ community outside of campus. I joined the Council to be a part of Carroll’s sincere efforts to ensure students and alumni can engage as our full selves.”

Griselda Macias ’08

“It is important for me to serve so that Carroll first generation students of color and alumni can see themselves represented, heard and seen through myself, other council members and the opportunities we have to amplify their voices and acknowledge their greatness!”

Ciara Czajkowski ’21

“As a recent grad, I love being able to be a voice for fellow alumni. In doing so, I get to connect with other amazing alumni along the way, which I am so grateful for!”
