ALUMNI ASSOCIATION LEADERSHIP
We are excited about our new Board Members and encourage ALL Ellington alumni to get involved, be counted, give back, be heard, and offer your support. We are looking to gather new and fresh ideas with the hope of continuing to bridge the gap between the Ellington's current student body, faculty, staff, and alumni. Please become a member, support activities, and lend a hand.
