The Circle

The Circle Creed
WE, the former leaders of the Iowa State University Alumni Association and Board of Directors, through membership in this newly formed society, recommit ourselves this day to the work and aspirations of the Association. We pledge to work alongside the Association staff and board as they strive to make Iowa State University stronger, provide opportunities for others to experience Iowa State, be the voice of history and traditions of the Association, and help Iowa State University carry out its vision.

WE FURTHER ACCEPT the following responsibilities of Circle membership: 1) To establish an ongoing relationship with the Alumni Association; 2) To keep up to date on Alumni Association matters; 3) To serve in an advisory capacity to the Association; and 4) To join with the Association in providing feedback to the university on items of mutual interest.

WE ULTIMATELY PLEDGE our ongoing loyalty and support of Iowa State University and the Iowa State University Alumni Association.
