Palmer Alumnae Leadership Council
The Alumnae Leadership Council was is a new
alumnae group with the goal of building community and networking opportunities.
The group was launched in 2010 at the Palmer Tea held in July and includes
active representation. One of the council’s major projects is to build support
for the Palmer Alumnae Scholarship.
The group currently meets in person in the Whittier area but is looking to
expand and utilize teleconferencing technologies to meet diverse locations and
schedules. We welcome all volunteers interested in these goals to join us.
