Alumni Council
The Alumni Council is made up of a membership of employees and volunteers whose purpose is to proudly promote Burman University and Parkview Adventist Academy and to cultivate life-long connections with alumni and friends. They work with the Office of Alumni and Advancement to plan and organize alumni events and activities, including the annual Homecoming weekend which is typically held on the first full weekend of June.
