Current Trustees

Our trustees are a small, uniquely engaged group that includes the president of the university and sixteen Yale graduates: ten appointed successor trustees and six elected alumni fellows. Connecticut’s governor and lieutenant are board members ex officio.

Drawing from their wide-ranging areas of expertise, our trustees are steadfast in their dedication to advancing and championing the Yale community’s unique spirit, reputation for excellence, and time-honored legacy.
