Political & Government Affairs Chapter


The Political & Government Affairs (PGA) chapter brings together alumni from the field of politics and government affairs.  Our mission is to support West Chester University and the alumni association, including alumni and current students from the Departments of Political Science, Public Administration and political organizations on campus.  We look forward to hosting our alumni on campus throughout the year and invite all to join us annually at Alumni Weekend to celebrate the distinguished alumni of our program.

As we look ahead to re-engaging this alumni group, we are seeking alumni feedback. Please complete our engagement survey and let us know how you would like to get involved with WCU.

Department of Political Science Alumni Awards


Each year, the Department of Political Science acknowledges the distinguished alumni of our program with two awards.

The Distinguished Alumni Award recognizes an alumnus/alumna with exemplary (quality and depth of) achievements over the span of a professional career. This award recognizes those who have had extraordinary success in the following arenas: professional achievement, public service, community involvement, and advancement of the University’s mission.

The Outstanding Young Alumni Award honors the achievements of more recent graduates up to the age of forty. This award spotlights leaders who have demonstrated early success in their professional community and show continued potential in their profession, commitment to their community and dedication to West Chester University.

Applications for nominations are solicited annually in the Spring.
