The Office of Alumni Relations aims to bring together the college and more than 18,000 alumni through a variety of formal and informal programs. The office works to coordinate, support and implement Alumni Association programs, including annual reunions (inviting alumni at least once every five years), approximately 100 chapter gatherings in nearly 60 chapters nationwide, the Davidson Black Alumni Network (DBAN), the Gay-Straight Alumni Network of Davidson (GSAND), volunteer opportunities for alumni across campus and across the country, alumni travel and summer learning programs and current student events to heighten awareness of alumni volunteer opportunities.

Additionally, Alumni Relations maintains alumni records, provides a variety of print and electronic publications, oversees elections for Alumni Association officers and Alumni Trustees, and manages a broad program of recognition for alumni achievement.
