Houser will serve two years as president of the CHP alumni board, which coordinates alumni activities and issues for the college’s 7,000 alumni.   The CHP alumni board comprises 11 program ambassadors, the past president, immediate past president and sitting president. Houser, a former board member, received her master's degree  in cytopathology from MUSC.   Munday, who owns Trio Solutions Inc. in Mount Pleasant, a planning and marketing web service provider for health care and nonprofit entities, will serve a year as the president of the Joint Alumni Board.
