Alumni affinity groups provide an opportunity for Vanderbilt affinity communities and supporters to connect with each other and the university. Vanderbilt currently serves four alumni affinity associations: AVBA - Association of Vanderbilt Black Alumni, AAVA - APIDA Association of Vanderbilt Alumni, LAVA - LGBTQIA+ Association of Vanderbilt Alumni, and VAHLA - Vanderbilt Association of Hispanic and Latinx Alumni. Join today and be a part of our inclusive alumni affinity organizations!

On Saturday, August 9, 2025, the Houston Multicultural Mixer preceded the Houston Commodore Launch, where alumni, current students, incoming students and families connect with the VU community before the semester begins.
This was the inaugural Multicultural Mixer outside of Nashville, with AAVA, AVBA, LAVA and VAHLA joining together to welcome incoming students!
