Attending EOU gets you access as a member of the Eastern Oregon University Alumni Association (EOUAA) – the proud community of the Mountaineer Nation. EOUAA is your opportunity to build lifelong relationships with other Mounties and continue to support EOU. Through social activities, alumni and friends forge connections with their alma mater and current and future Mountaineers. Alumni are crucial to the success of EOU and our current students. Once you attend EOU, you’re a Mountaineer for life – and we proudly support you! Once a part of the EOU Alumni Association you’re helping do your part to make the Mountaineer Nation even stronger.
The EOUAA is a non-dues-paying group, founded alongside the EOU Foundation in 1964 to support EOU alumni and maintain their connections with their alma mater. This is a network of more than 15,000 worldwide graduates or those who have taken a minimum of EOU courses (or its partner programs). The EOUAA aims to promote the university’s mission and vision, encourage communication amongst alumni, partners, and friends, promote financial support of EOU, and actively support a network of alumni who will, in turn, help raise the profile of EOU.
