Why are you doing a university-wide alumni directory?
A directory will enable you to find and keep in touch with old friends and classmates. Also, because your name and biographical information will be listed along with those of other alumni, it will be easy for them to contact you. Finally, this directory project will assist the Alumni Office in keeping the most accurate and up-to-date records possible on all alumni so we can let you know what’s happening at the school.
- How often will you publish a directory?
We plan to publish a directory approximately every five years in order to update and maintain current information.
- Why was I asked to return the directory questionnaire to a Virginia address?
We have selected Harris Publishing (aka HarrisConnect), with offices in Norfolk, Virginia, to produce our new directory. Harris has an excellent reputation and has produced over 4,000 directories for a variety of colleges, universities, high schools, and membership associations all over North America.
- Why did Harris call me even though I returned my questionnaire?
We've asked Harris to contact everyone, primarily to make absolutely sure that the data we have is current. You'd be surprised how many people change jobs or move between the time they return a questionnaire and the time the directory is ready to print. Plus, we want to be sure that all spelling is correct so that our directory is accurate and useful.
- Is there any difference between the contents of the Softbound and the Hardbound edition?
No. The contents are identical. Only the cover stock is different.
- Why does the directory cost so much?
Harris is producing our directory free of charge to the university. They put a lot of work into the research and production of the directory, so the cost of the directory will cover expenses incurred by Harris.
- How will the university benefit from the project?
We will receive an up-to-date database of all of our alumni. This will be invaluable for helping us keep in touch.
- What happens if I don’t order a directory now, but change my mind later?
We have arranged to print as many directories as are ordered before we go to press. So, if you do change your mind prior to publication, you can call the Harris Customer Service Department at 1-800-877-6554.
- What forms of payment will be accepted for the purchase of a directory?
The directory may be paid for by major credit card or check. Payment(s) may be made by credit card at the time of order or by check upon receipt of the invoice(s). We also offer installment payment plans, allowing alumni to pay a portion now and the rest later.
- What if I decide I want to cancel the order I have placed?
Orders for the directory may be canceled by simply writing the word “Cancel” on the invoice and returning it to Harris or by calling the Harris Customer Service Department at
1-800-877-6554. Be sure to provide the account number when canceling an order.
- What if I have already received the directory and want to return it?
Call the Harris Customer Service Department at 1-800-877-6554.
