Class Agents
Class Agents play an important role in Middlebury’s Annual Fund campaign. These 800 alumni volunteers serve as the primary and most personal contact between the College and their classmates. The two key goals of our Class Agent program are to increase class participation—and therefore Middlebury’s overall undergraduate participation—and to foster communication among the class.
Responsibilities
- Attend the Alumni Leadership Conference at Bread Loaf in September.
- Join a class agent webinar held just before the contact period or watch the webinar recording (see above).
- Make your gift to Middlebury by December 31 so you can encourage classmates to join you in supporting the College.
- Contact 10-15 classmates by phone, e-mail, letters or in person during our contact periods to ask for their participation in your class fund-raising efforts.
- Share news about current issues at the College with your classmates and provide feedback on your classmates' interests, questions and concerns.
- Thank classmates! Every gift deserves a personal thank you.

Alumni Leadership Conference
We hope you will join us as a guest of the College at the annual Alumni Leadership Conference at Bread Loaf each September. You'll hear from the president and other members of the College's leadership team and attend workshops that will help you achieve your class' goals. It is also an opportunity to spend time with old friends and meet alumni from other eras who share your love for the College. There are social events and free time for hiking, biking, or visiting the main campus.
