Support Admissions
Do you know of a student who could be a good fit for Ripon College? Referring a student is a meaningful way to introduce them to Ripon College and demonstrate how our education can empower them to achieve their goals and aspirations. You can grow our Ripon College family.
Support Students
Volunteers work with our Center for Career and Professional Development to create, organize and share opportunities centered around helping our students gain valuable knowledge and skills relevant to their future plans. Volunteers also can connect with faculty and staff related to specific areas of interest for both personal and professional development of our students.
Support Alumni
Ripon alumni live and work across the globe. Event hosts help to keep our alumni network connected no matter where our alumni are. Volunteers work in conjunction with the Office of Constituent Engagement to develop ideas, recruit additional volunteers and plan events, such as a Rally Hour! This is a great way to volunteer without having to travel to Ripon.
Class Agents and Reunion Volunteers
Each class of Ripon College graduates is invited to have one or more Class Agents who serve as a liaison between Ripon College and their classmates. They write personalized letters that are sent to their classmates each spring and fall to share class news as well as relevant updates from the College. Class Agents also help plan for their Class Reunions along with a special committee of reunion volunteers.
