The Young Alumni Council (YAC) consists of 21 members who graduated from Furman no more than 15 years ago. These representatives are charged with promoting young alumni fellowship, participating in university activities, counseling the Alumni Board on matters impacting young alumni, and welcoming graduating seniors into the Alumni Association.
Members serve three-year terms and meet three times annually. They are invited to attend the Bell Tower Ball each year as recognition for their service.
