Our alumni network represents a wide variety of backgrounds, experiences, and career fields.
Close Up alumni have been inspired to run for office, serve as teachers, and become advocates for the issues they care about. They are also part of a global community of people who have shared a life-changing Close Up experience. If you’re a current or former Close Up student, teacher, guest speaker, educational partner, board member, program instructor, or staff member, we invite you to join our alumni network today to make connections and stay involved with the Close Up mission!
I learned that there’s a huge network of people with the same goals and drive as me…
and that our collaboration really could make a difference. It gave me hope for the future of our communities and our nation!
I think Close Up’s virtual program is an amazing experience…
I’m truly blown away by what Close Up’s been able to accomplish in the last two weeks during IMPACT 2020…
The material seems very high level, and my daughter’s been very motivated to participate every day. I wanted to be sure to commend the staff on providing such a great experience!
Close Up brought me CLOSER to politics…
the entire notion no longer seemed obscure. I became very involved in politics on the local and national level.
