¾ÅÐãÖ±²¥ Student Alumni Association (QSAA) is made up of a diverse group of student leaders from all faculties that work to deliver a series of events and initiatives that enrich the student experience and student-alumni connection.
Mission
The QSAA is a student-run organization that prepares ¾ÅÐãÖ±²¥ students for success by connecting them to their futures as engaged ¾ÅÐãÖ±²¥ alumni. QSAA's events offer students opportunities to hear from, network, and connect with ¾ÅÐãÖ±²¥ alumni, providing students with outside-the-classroom professional and personal development.
History
Founded in 1986, STAR (The Queen’s Student Team on Alumni Relations), was the first student-run organization that promoted student-alumni engagement at Queen’s. In September of 2008, STAR was restructured as the Queen’s Student Alumni Association (QSAA) to better transition students into members of the Queen’s University Alumni Association (QUAA).
Working out of Summerhill, our volunteer student ambassadors work alongside the Department of Alumni Relations & Annual Giving and the ¾ÅÐãÖ±²¥ Alumni Association (QUAA) Board.
QSAA Volunteer of Distinction Award
The QSAA Volunteer of Distinction Award was introduced in 2009 to honour outstanding volunteers of the ¾ÅÐãÖ±²¥ Student Alumni Association. Award recipients are honoured at the prestigious annual ¾ÅÐãÖ±²¥ Alumni Association Alumni Awards Gala.
