The Appalachian Alumni Leadership Committee (ALC) was created during the early 1990s when Bradley Thompson '80 '82 and Tom Lawson '82 '87 saw an opportunity for Appalachian to involve an emerging group of alumni in their late 20's to early 40's in the life of the University. Originally called the Alumni Corporate Committee (ACC), this group first met in Fall 1991. Its members represent all of the colleges on campus.
