Rhodes alumni

There are over 4,400 living Rhodes Scholars residing in more than fifty countries around the world. These women and men serve their professions, their communities, their countries, and the global community in varied and significant ways. See Rhodes Scholar News.  Also, click to view the Rhodes alumni associations that have formed in many constituencies, or to view video interviews with Rhodes alumni. 

Rhodes alumni also participate actively in supporting the Rhodes Scholarships in a variety of ways:

• Participation in Rhodes alumni associations and foundations, and alumni events
• Serving on selection committees and as regional and national secretaries
• Informal mentoring of younger Rhodes Scholars
• Participation in Rhodes community strategic dialogue and, in 2009-10, in the Rhodes community consultation on governance
• Participation in the governance of the Rhodes Trust as Trustees and as members of Trustee committees (Scholarship Committee, Finance and Investment Committee, Governance Committee, Development Committee for the Rhodes Scholarships) and on taskforces (such as the current taskforce on Rhodes online presence and community) to advise the Warden and Trustees; and through
• Supplementing the bequest of Cecil Rhodes with their own financial contributions (major gifts, annual giving, and bequests) in support of the Scholarships. 

Rhodes House is committed to supporting the Scholar alumni community around the globe to promote life-long Scholar engagement and connectivity. Alumni events to meet with the Warden of Rhodes House are being held over time in all Rhodes countries.
