Alumni Involvement
Strong student groups maintain connections with their alumni through emails and newsletters, invitations to alumni events, networking and career development events, and requests for alumni speakers, advisors, and mentors. The MIT Alumni Association helps student groups-including FSILGs, residence halls, athletic teams, and student activities-reach out to their alumni with services ranging from alumni lists to event planning.
