The Georgia Tech Alumni Association is the official alumni association for the Georgia Institute of Technology (Georgia Tech). Originally known as the Georgia Tech National Alumni Association, it was chartered in June 1908 and incorporated in 1947.[1][2] Its offices have been in the L. W. "Chip" Robert, Jr. Alumni House on North Avenue since 1979.[3]
Its first presidents (starting in 1921) were William H. Glenn, followed by L. W. Robert, Jr. and Y. Frank Freeman.[4] The current president of the alumni association is Dene Sheheane.[5][6] Sheheane succeeds Joseph Irwin who previously held the position since 1999.[7] Other notable presidents include Cherry L. Emerson, Bobby Jones, and Frank A. Hooper.[4][8][9]
As of September 2019, there were approximately 166,000 living alumni of Georgia Tech.[10] Since 2006, Georgia Tech alumni have given between $30 million to $40 million a year, providing about 30 to 40 percent of the institute's development funds.[11] Georgia Tech is ranked third in alumni giving among public universities, and 26th overall.[12]
