Why Alumni Chapters?

After graduation from Virginia Tech, many alumni have a strong desire to maintain strong ties with the university. Virginia Tech recognizes its more than 190,000 alumni as one of the university's most valued resources and encourages alumni participation in shaping the institution's future. Alumni also enjoy opportunities to share their affection and commitment to Virginia Tech with others like themselves. Recognizing this need to enhance stronger relationships between former students and the university at a grass roots level, the Virginia Tech Alumni Association has established an extensive network of local alumni chapters across the country. These chapters strive to keep alumni informed about Virginia Tech and other opportunities for graduates to join together in support of the university.

Join Us!

Our chapter has more than 1,000 alumni in the South Florida area. With gatherings and events in Miami-Dade, Broward and Palm Beach counties, there's no excuse not to partake in the fun. Reminisce about days at VT, cheer on the football team, recruit new Hokies and do much more with the local Hokie crew!! We have several events throughout the year, but our most popular events are the football watching events in the fall. In addition to our web page we also keep local alumni updated with regular email updates.
