VOTE NOW IN YOUR ASSOCIATION OF GRADUATES BOARD ELECTIONS!

The 2025 Association of Graduates Election will be conducted from February 3, 2025 at 12pm MT through March 3, 2025 at 12pm MT. The election is for five elected positions on the AOG board of directors and two member-proposed changes to the AOG’s governing documents.

The Board of Directors’ Nominating Committee has identified desired attributes for the five board positions open in the 2025 election:

• MISSION: Commitment to our mission “We are dedicated to serving graduates, preserving the heritage of the Academy and Long Blue Line, and supporting USAFA in its mission to develop leaders of character for the Air Force and Space Force.”
• BOARD EXPERIENCE: Previous experience on a board, such as a nonprofit, for-profit, and/or military selection and promotion board.
• SKILLS/EXPERTISE: Specific expertise is also valued. Areas may include, but are certainly not limited to, accounting, finance, legal (e.g., staff judge advocate), executive leadership and marketing.
• CONNECTION: Strong connections with our Academy, our Association and Foundation and other supporting nonprofits are also valued.
• AWARDS & RECOGNITION: Military or civilian awards and recognitions also make for a strong candidate.
