NAA History

01
The National Alumni Association, Incorporated, of Alabama State University (NAA) was established by some of its graduates in the early 1960s, which at that time was called the General Alumni Association. Its objective was to provide an association that would form the nucleus for common sharing of interests in the University by its graduates. Membership in the NAA is held by all graduates of Alabama State University and former students who attended for at least one grading period, whether quarters or semesters.

02
The governing body of the NAA is the delegate assembly which sets policies and elects officers. The interim business affairs of the NAA are managed and controlled by an Executive Committee , comprised of the President, First Vice President, 2nd Vice President, Treasurer, Recording Secretary, Financial Secretary, Four Regional Directors, Four Regional Representatives, and two ex-officio members (immediate past NAA president and Alumni Relations Director)

03
The local chapter is the bedrock of the NAA, and effective participation is essential to a strong viable NAA. There are more than 40 chapters on the alumni roster stretching from the East coast to the West coast. Alumni chapters are divided into four regions. Each region has a regional director and a regional representative who are elected at the regional level to coordinate and oversee the work of the alumni chapters located within their region. Through the years, the NAA has been led by 18 presidents.

About ASU

ASU

Alabama State University, located in Montgomery, Ala., is a widely respected, world-class institution of higher learning which welcomes students of all races. ASU offers nearly 50 undergraduate and graduate degree programs, from the historic teacher education program to new, high-demand programs, such as the Ph.D. in microbiology and international business.

History

The ASU movement began with the impetus to establish a school for Black Alabamians. The Civil War resulted in not only the end of slavery, but also in the opportunity for Blacks to have the right to education. ASU was born out of this movement. ASU is the global entity it is today because of the fortitude of nine freed slaves from Marion, Ala., who sought to build a school for African-Americans previously denied the right to an education.

Mission

Alabama State University is a comprehensive diverse student- centered public HBCU committed to global excellence in teaching, research and service. ASU offers baccalaureate through doctorate degrees in an expansive array of academic programs. We maintain a scholarly and creative faculty, state-of-the-art facilities, and an atmosphere in which members of the university community live, work and learn in pleasant surroundings. ASU offers a bridge to success for those who commit to pursing quintessential educational opportunities and lifelong endeavors.
