History

Founded in 2012, the Maxwell ICMA Student Chapter provides programming and information for students interested in pursuing careers in state and local government. In addition to several activities on campus, and in the local community, the chapter attends the ICMA Conference every year through generous fundraising efforts lead by dedicated Maxwell alums. The Maxwell School of Citizenship and Public Affairs has a long-standing commitment to support students interested in making a difference at the state and local level.

Maxwell is proud of our alumni who have served as ICMA executive director and president and in several additional capacities.
