Affinity Programs

At W&L, our interests and identities provide new ways for us to come together.

What Inspires You?

W&L affinity programs are designed to build deeper connections among alumni by celebrating their diverse interests and fostering communities where they feel a sense of belonging.

Affinity Events

Affinity programming begins with an affinity group — an alumni cohort united by a shared interest, identity, or purpose from their time at W&L. These groups demonstrate a lasting commitment to staying connected, whether in person or virtually, through a variety of engaging programming.

All alumni affinity events are supported by the Office of Alumni Engagement. Have an idea for a future event? We would love to hear from you! Reach out to us at alumni@wlu.edu.
