The Black Alumni Chapter sponsors events and programs to build connections within DePaul's alumni community.
MISSION: The Black Alumni Chapter strives to foster opportunities for African American alumni to become actively involved in enriching DePaul University through interaction with fellow alumni, current students, faculty and staff.
