If you feel able to assist me, please respond directly, rather than via the mailbase, to <[log in to unmask]> I'm undertaking research for an MBA project - the topic is developing and maintaining relationships with students, with a focus on maintaining links with completed students. I'm not focussing specifically or exclusively on formal alumni organizations, but am exploring the different rationales and methods for maintaining links. Firstly - does anybody know of any research already undertaken in this area and can you point me onwards? Secondly - can you tell me anything about your own experience within your own institution? You could complete and return the attached questionnaire - any thoughts (even partial returns) would be much appreciated. Returns by 31 August would be really valuable. ---------------------- Christopher Hallas Head of Registry Services [log in to unmask] 0207 320 1270
