Board of Associates

BOA members Richard England (left) and John Yeh, ChairThe Board of Associates (BOA) was launched in 1991 to build relationships with business and philanthropic leaders. The members help the University develop a high-quality network of employers and benefactors who, through their support, ensure the future success of Gallaudet and of individual students.

In addition to making business introductions, board members also lecture in a class once a year and act as advocates to promote the University. There have been many exciting results from their work, including new internships and job possibilities for our students and increased private support.
