UMD Smith Alumni Board

About the Smith Alumni Board

The Smith Alumni Board (SAB) is a dedicated group of volunteers committed to enhancing the lifelong connection between alumni and the Robert H. Smith School of Business. As ambassadors of the school, SAB members work closely with the Office of Alumni Relations to create meaningful experiences, foster relationships, and advocate for fellow alumni. Together, we promote the school’s mission and strategic goals, ensuring a vibrant, engaged community that supports the continued success of the Smith School and its graduates.

Board members serve on various committees that are determined by the needs of the alumni community and the initiatives of the Office of Alumni Relations. This year, those committees are:

Big Ten Peer Engagement
Career Services
Nominations
Philanthropy & Membership
Social & Community Engagement
