Greetings from Alumni Board President,
Jon Zillioux `83
Warm greetings from your alma mater! As the President of the Alumni Association, I am delighted to work on behalf of you and the more than 17,000 alumni of Brevard College. It is with great pride that the Alumni Association honors the legacy you have left upon our institution by continuing to actively support the College’s Mission of providing experiential liberal arts education that encourages personal growth and inspires artistic, intellectual, and social action.
Our alumni community has flourished over the years, boasting accomplished professionals, thought leaders, artists, business owners, teachers, community and environmental activists and change-makers in a great variety of fields. Your continued support and involvement are invaluable in shaping the college's trajectory and fostering a vibrant network of students and alumni.
As a 1983 graduate of the College, and now retired from a Fortune 500 company where I was fortunate to work in a wide variety of roles, I am pleased to turn my energy towards growing engagement within the Brevard College alumni community. In light of my former professional and leadership experiences, it is exciting to see firsthand the very high caliber thought leadership, deep experience, great energy and nimble footing the College is bringing towards not only sustaining but growing this institution’s ability to successfully fulfill its core Mission well into the future.
Based on getting to know College staff and leadership while serving on the board, and seeing ever increasing momentum in action, it’s abundantly clear that every moment of engagement and every dollar provided from the alumni community drives positive returns of even greater measure.
Your Alumni Board is a reflection of you - including an emeritus member from the class of 1945, and others from the 1950s through the 2000’s. King’s Creek still flows, as does a shared passion for Brevard College among graduates of all generations. The Alumni Board is keenly focused and actively working towards supporting the College’s Mission. Above all, we are especially proud to represent you.
