account inappropriately, there is no recourse the school can do other =
than close the account.
We have been talking about emails with our alums. (We are a K-8 =
school.) What I have noticed is that fewer and fewer high school =
students use email. I have two of my own kids, and I either have to =
"Facebook" or text them if I need to contact them. (They are 18 and 21, =
and they do not live at home.) They both have email accounts, but they =
check them maybe once a month.
I think we need to rethink how we are staying in contact with our alums. =
I love email and use it all the time, but that is not really what the =
kids use anymore.

Hi Larry -
Development offices seem to think this is a great idea but I wonder if =
they
have ever asked alums what they think of it.
Anyway, we offer email addresses to our alumnae. Few choose to do this. =
Of
those who do, they use it as for email forwarding. Of course this =
requires
maintenance on their part if they ever move to another email account and
abandon the account being forwarded to. Our program is too new to see if
enrollment will pick-up over time.
