Dartmouth Club of Oregon and SouthWest Washington

About

Our club is comprised of Dartmouth alumni - undergrad, as well as grads of Guarini, Geisel, Thayer, and Tuck - in Oregon and SouthWest Washington.

Although club activities tend to be centered in the Portland metropolitan area we welcome all alumni to participate in the club.

What we do

  • Host a new student send-off in the fall, introducing matriculating Oregon students to each other

  • Participate in interviewing, to help find next year’s incoming class

  • Recognize promising high school students - who might otherwise be unfamiliar with Dartmouth - with Dartmouth Book Awards

  • Host alumni social events: happy hours, Big Green watching parties, Timbers games, …

  • Host young alumni social events, to help people new to the area

  • And, host annual events like the summer Portland Spirit cruise and our winter holiday party

The Board

The Dartmouth club’s board meets regularly via Zoom to help plan events and discuss club business (organizing interviewing, planning the new student send-off, …).

Alumni can sit in on board meetings or contact us about joining as an at-large member - a good way to get more involved in the club.
