Building an Alumni Community

Public

Discussion:

I have just taken over the student services position at my school (I had previously been in Financial Aid). One thing we have trouble with is staying in touch with grads.

I would like to begin building an Alumni Community for our grads. We already have a facebook page, but it gets VERY LITTLE traffic.

Any other suggestions to jumpstart a program for Alumni?
