Congratulations to both!

We will welcome them when the terms begin, on 1 January 2023. Their mission, lasting three years, will be to sustain a fully informed, representative, and engaged exchange of information and sentiment between alumni and ISU. And to enhance and inspire alumni involvement that furthers the mission of ISU.

Thank you to our highly qualified slate of alumni nominees – this time from Africa or Oceania – and to all those who voted. ISU extends its renewed thanks also to outgoing representatives Soyeon Yi and Halit Mirahmetoglu for their service these past years.
