College Appointed Directors

College Appointed Directors are nominated by Harvard and Radcliffe College alumni and class leaders in partnership with the HAA staff and are appointed by the Board’s Executive Committee. They are selected based on their demonstrated volunteer leadership and capacity to work effectively with their College-based generational cohort. Directors serve as liaisons between the HAA, their fellow Harvard and Radcliffe volunteers, and their cohort classes. More about the HAA Board of Directors.
