National Alumni Board

Dedicated Bethel alumni serve on the National Alumni Board (NAB). They love their Bethel roots and work hard to build relationships with our 40,000+ alumni who are serving Christ worldwide.

Who We Are

Beyond serving on the board, we're also dedicated prayer partners and donors—continually advancing the mission, vision, and values of the university.

What We Do

Meeting 3 times a year, the NAB helps:

  • Facilitate Homecoming events
  • Research Alumna/Alumnus of the Year candidates
  • Evaluate faculty grants
  • Cultivate relationships with other alumni
  • Give feedback on new initiatives and ideas

Our members living outside the Twin Cities coordinate alumni events in their area and serve as Bethel ambassadors in their churches and communities.
