Alumni Association
The Alumni Association is composed of all former students of Mercer University and
all recipients of Mercer non-credit continuing education certificates. At the present time,
there are approximately 30,000 alumni/ae whose addresses are on record in the Office
of University Relations and Development. These Mercerians are located in 50 states and
44 foreign countries.
The purpose of the association is to perpetuate the friendships formed in college days
and to foster the causes of education in general and specifically at Mercer University. One
of the functions of the association is the promotion of the Annual Alumni/ae Fund, which
provides opportunities for contributions to advance the scholarship and student aid funds
and provides many education enhancements to strengthen academic programs.
The association is organized by chapters in geographical areas and by major professional
groups: ministers, attorneys, pharmacists, and teachers. The professional and area
groups have annual meetings. The affairs of all alumni/ae are directed by the officers and
the executive committees of the groups.
