Before there was a Jackson-Tougaloo Alumni Chapter, there was a Jackson-Tougaloo Club. Nearly a century ago, in 1926, this union of alumni and friends donated funds that supported the endeavors of our school. Our chapter has a growing membership and welcome new members to join us at anytime. Annual dues are just $20. Go to ourJOIN JTAC page for more information.
