Alumni Engagement

Butler Communities

Butler Communities provide opportunities for Butler alumni, parents, family, and friends to stay involved with Butler, no matter where they live. Butler Communities are groups of alumni, supporters, and friends linked by a common experience such as a geographic area or special interest and serve as extensions of the Butler University Alumni Association. In addition to serving the Alumni Association’s mission, communities work in partnership with the Office of Alumni Relations & Engagement staff to provide opportunities for Butler alumni, parents, family, and friends to stay engaged in meaningful ways that benefit the overall mission of the University.
