Students for a few years. Alumni forever.
It’s our philosophy the quality of a student’s undergraduate experience directly affects their alumni experience. We hope you’ll consider becoming a part of it all today as a student leader or member in one of our groups.
Your GAA has four premier student organizations – the Student Alumni Association (SAA), Homecoming Committee, Order of the Bell Tower (OBT) and the Senior Class. The GAA also advises two of UNC’s leading a cappella groups, the Clef Hangers and Loreleis, as well as UNC’s yearbook, Yackety Yack. The GAA provides staff advisers, meeting and office space and financially supports these groups. All groups are led by dedicated student leaders.
The GAA also creates and molds the Carolina experience for prospective and current students through a variety of activities. The GAA co-sponsors and collaborates with Student Affairs and numerous other University offices and departments. This includes a variety of student-oriented programs including admissions and recruitment.
