Southern University Alumni Federation
Uniting graduates and former students for 81 years. This became the Home Chapter.

Forever encouraging pride in our beloved alma mater.
The Southern University Alumni Federation had its early beginnings from 1920-1932, when a group of graduates from the Normal Division (two year program), the Junior College of 1921-1922 and the first graduating class of the four-year Teacher Training Program of 1931-1932 formed an alumni group called the Southern University Alumni Association. Although this early alumni group was more social than philanthropic, they were the forerunners of a more organized alumni group that was later formed on the Baton Rouge campus. On Nov. 7, 1941, the Southern University Alumni Federation was chartered by the State of Louisiana. Since its chartering, the Federation has intermittently grown to approximately 50 chapters. It has an active roaster of thousands of alumni across the country and abroad. More than 100,000 former students and graduates contribute their training and leadership to the world as educators, politicians, physicians, engineers, artists, ministers, nurses, attorneys and military officers. Their professional contributions verify the significant role Southern University has held in Louisiana, the United States and the world. During the past 79 years, our alumni's role in civic and political affairs has increased markedly, with many holding elected and appointed offices. The Southern University Alumni Federation encourages our graduates to become involved in community affairs. The Federation recognizes that in order for the University to secure its rightful place in the scheme of higher education, we must be involved in the process responsible for the delivery of funds and facilities to the University that will ultimately attract faculty and students.

JAGUAR NATION, WE NEED TO HEAR FROM YOU!
The Southern University System is at an important moment in its history as we prepare to welcome our next System President.
The Board of Supervisors has identified three finalists. Now, it is important that our alumni have a meaningful opportunity to help shape the conversation.

Here's what I believe: The finalists need to hear from us just as much as we need to hear from them!

What questions should we be asking about fundraising? Alumni engagement? Student success? Government relationships? Our HBCU legacy? The future of our entire Southern University System?
As your National Alumni Federation President, I want to make sure that when we engage with these finalists and the Board of Supervisors, we're representing more than individual opinions.

We're representing the voices of Jaguar Nation!

That's why we're asking you to complete our Presidential Finalists Engagement Survey.
✅ Share your top priorities
✅ Help shape the questions we ask all three finalists
✅ Tell us what concerns you most
✅ Make your voice part of the conversation

TAKE THE SURVEY HERE:

Whether you graduated 5 years ago or 50 years ago, whether you live in Baton Rouge or across the world, YOUR VOICE MATTERS!
We're respecting our past, protecting our present, and preparing our future.

Let's make our voices heard. Let's help Southern WIN!

Howard L. White Jr.
National President
