Alumni Council

How we stay connected with alumni

We've formed an Alumni Council to help ensure we're meeting your needs. The council serves as your voice on campus—bringing together Bethel graduates from across the country and across generations.

Alumni Council members are dedicated to living out Bethel’s mission and extending its reach to impact our community. For them, Bethel is more than the place where they earned a degree—it’s where they grew in faith and built lifelong relationships. Because of these strong roots, they’re passionate about connecting with our 50,000+ alumni who are serving Christ worldwide.

The Alumni Council supports all Bethel undergraduate, graduate, and seminary alumni. If you’d like to learn more or express interest in joining, contact the alumni relations team.

What we do

Aligned with the university’s mission, the Alumni Council partners with the Office of Alumni Relations to strengthen the Bethel alumni community. In addition to their Council service, members are dedicated prayer partners and donors who help advance Bethel’s mission, vision, and values.

The Alumni Council’s primary roles and responsibilities include:

  • Boost alumni engagement. Promote and support programs, events, and initiatives that build a vibrant and connected alumni community.
  • Provide feedback. Represent the Bethel alumni community and share input on important topics where alumni voices are needed.
  • Recommend award nominees. Solicit nominations and help recommend Bethel award recipients.
