Mission Statement

Since 1977, Preservation Alumni (PA) has worked to support and enrich the Historic Preservation Program at Columbia University by advising and assisting students, faculty, and alumni of the Program. PA seeks to advance preservation as a diverse field of public and professional endeavors.

  • Program Support

    PA provides a number of benefits specifically for students in the Program, including mentorship opportunities, grants, prizes, and career development assistance. Additionally, PA works directly with the Program to enhance student experience.

  • Member Support

    PA establishes connections across its alumni network as well as between alumni and current students by organizing and hosting lectures, tours, volunteer events, networking opportunities, and bi-annual celebrations. These, along with our monthly newsletters, job postings, and annual meetings provide a forum for the exchange of ideas, updates concerning the program, and news from the preservation field at large.

Meet the Board

The Preservation Alumni Board consists of 12-20 members who represent a broad span of class years. PA welcomes alumni to join the Board regardless of their geographic location. To learn more about joining the Board, email info@preservationalumni.org.
