National Association of LSAMP Alumni (NALA)

previously known as LSAMP Alumni Group

Visit us on the new LSAMP Alumni Group website
In 2017, Paul Faronbi (Iowa State University, 2016) and Queenster Nartey (Grinnell College, 2016) founded the IINSPIRE LSAMP Alumni Committee. The committee consisted of alumni from across the IINSPIRE LSAMP Alliance. This year, we are developing a new committee to expand to all LSAMP institutions.

LSAMP alumni are encouraged to give back to the program through role modeling and other activities that support STEM student success. STEM alumni serve as valuable role models to multicultural STEM students and exemplify the value of LSAMP to our partners and funding agencies.
