Identity-Based Networks
Identity-based networks at Whitman aim to connect alumni with classmates based on their shared cultural, racial and personal identities to amplify the voices of their communities within the Whitman community. These networks serve as a space to celebrate and connect as well as encourage participation in Whitman events, networking opportunities, mentoring, volunteerism and philanthropy.
The Alumni of Color Network is dedicated to building connections and relationships between Whitties of Color across class years. This space will serve as a place for alums to gather, connect and broaden the reach of the Whitman Alumni Association. Through support, engagement and mentorship, the Alumni of Color Network supports the advancement of fellow alums, students and the college to make a lasting impact on lives after Whitman.
Join the Alumni of Color Network to stay in the know about regional or on-campus get togethers, virtual events and more!
The First Generation/Working Class (FG/WC) community seeks to connect first-generation/working-class alumni with others who were the first in their immediate family to graduate from a four-year college and/or come from working-class families. This group aims to provide sustainable engagement, professional development, mentorship and personal growth for all members in their post-graduate lives.

Graduates of the Last Decade (GOLD) council members amplify the voices of young alumni in Whitman spaces, advise the Alumni Association staff, and help facilitate networking and social events in their areas of residency/work.
If you would like to inquire about being a member of GOLD email GoldCouncil@whitman.edu. Meetings occur monthly and are open to all Graduates of the Last Decade.
With Whitties hailing from all over the globe, the International community makes up much of the Whitman Alumni Association. Here, global Whitties can stay connected to Whitman and each other through activities, conversations and virtual events from anywhere in the world. Have a strong representation of Whitties from/in your country? Host an event there too! In collaboration with the Alumni Office, the International Alumni Network serves to bring Whitties born and raised abroad together.

This network is committed to expanding the activity within the Whitman Alumni Association through the Whitman LGBTQIA+ community.
