The Somerville Association represents a considerable body of experience and expertise, which is shared on an informal, voluntary basis through its networks with members, undergraduates, postgraduates and as a means of supporting and promoting the College.
The Somerville Association is managed by an elected President and Committee comprised of Association members (all are eligible to stand for office) and Fellows appointed by the College. The association is administrated by its joint secretaries, who are employed by the college exclusively to support the alumni community.
