As the University's official keeper of alumni records, the Alumni Association Records Department maintains key data for more than 747,000 alumni and friends of the University. The magnitude of effectively maintaining these records is evidenced by the more than 120,000 demographic and biographic updates made during FY 1997-98.
Individual attention is given to each record on an ongoing basis.
As the interests of alumni expand and diversify, so, too, does the coding of their records. This information is used by numerous official groups affiliated with the Association. An average of 250 diverse requests are processed monthly as a response to appeals from representatives for publications, reunions, club events, tours, special events and a wide variety of other member services.
