Virginia Polytechnic Institute and State University. Alumni Association
Historical Note
On 11 August 1875, Virginia Tech's first Alumni Association was formed by the twelve members of the first graduating class. In 1891, the Association was reorganized, under a new constitution, and began publishing an Alumni Register. The Association was incorporated on 23 June 1924. In 1964, new bylaws were adopted and the Association became more closely linked with the University. At the same time the title of Alumni Secretary was changed to Director of Alumni Affairs; in 1972, the title was changed to Executive Director, and then to Executive Vice-President in 1980. Individuals holding this office under its various titles were: H.B. Redd (1926-60); M.L. Oliver (1960-65); Philip Oliver (acting, 1965-66); C.B. Ross (1966-67); H.L. Pritchard (acting, 1967-68); and George E. Russell (1968-1995). In 1990, the Alumni Association became an official part of the University.
