So i went last night- it was more of a how do we get alums to
connect with the university, less of just give us your ideas.
But thats ok i gave them our ideas anyway. It was run by a
Boston ad company.
It was intimate, as in only 3 other alums, all of which were
great people and very accomplished. We talked for almost 2
hours about feedback on the alumni process, what the university
could do better, how do we sell the university on new students,
etc.
I summarized all of our ideas into a packet, discussed a few
major ones, and gave them the entire packet.
It was really great to meet other alums- like yourselves- that
are so focused on making SB better.

Which brings me to another idea-
Alumni Email- other universities, when you graduate, your email
automatically becomes dot-alumni and you have it forever. Its
not exactly benevolent; its a way to solicit donations, but also
to keep people informed.
One of the points that repeatedly came up last night was- SB is
great / not enough people know. So with that i thought- what a
tragedy. Our issue isnt acheiving greatness; its that we have
and we cant get the word out.
Wouldnt the above idea help.

Technically, we had an ESPN sponsored "Battle" game a few years
ago.

I personally preferred "Mobsters vs Lobsters".
There are plenty of SBU legends, none of them that I can think
of paint SBU in a positiive light (Sherman Raftenburg and the
Physics building basement debacle are the biggest two that come
to mind).
I love the alumni email idea, the wolf statue, the flag, all of
it!
