Affinity Groups

Find Argos with similar interests by joining an alumni affinity group.


Affinity groups bring our alumni together based on a shared special interest or population (e.g., student organization, athletic team, professional organization, cultural, or academic group). Alumni can be members of both an alumni chapter and affinity group. A list of current affinity groups is below.

If you are interested in learning more about affinity groups or forming a new one, contact Teresa Burgess (tburgess@uwf.edu).

Logo for Catholic Argos

The mission of Catholic Argos is to live our encounter with Christ and invite others to "come and see" what we have encountered. We do this by being aware of our belonging to the Catholic Church, focusing on persons over programming, and intentionally taking care of our relationships. We seek to empower people to take initiative in their lives and in our ministry.
