Class chairs

The Earlham class chair program is a unique way to strengthen your bond to your alma mater and encourage bonds among your classmates. Class chairs serve as a goodwill ambassador and spokesperson for their class by promoting engagement and connection between Earlham and their classmates. Class chairs facilitate communication among their class, organize class reunions and assist the College through giving and volunteer efforts.
