The Association of Future Alumni, known around campus as AFA, is the chapter of the Alumni Association open to all students, in any major at University of Louisiana at Lafayette. The purpose of this organization is to instill in its members a life-long sense of commitment and pride for our University.  Meetings are held at the Alumni Center’s board room located directly behind the Alumni house.  Becoming a member of AFA gives students the opportunity to network with members of the Alumni Association, and also provides great resume development. Networking occurs at events held year round such as homecoming events, tailgating, and the annual Spring Gala, to name a few. Discounts to local and national businesses are offered to members as well as free food and beverages at meetings.
