Hi All,

We allow alumni to keep email indefinitely (option 1). However, Google's recent
announcement
<https://www.blog.google/outreach-initiatives/education/google-workspace-for-education?utm_source=outreach&utm_medium=email&utm_campaign=FY21-Q1-global-other-email-other-edu-product-news-workspace-launch&utm_content=product-news&mkt_tok=eyJpIjoiT1RoaFltRTNNRE13TlRjNSIsInQiOiJJYzkwUGVCVit0czBNOUNQZlJ2NlFUQUtXaHMyRGNBRDNERXBsWFN4YzlSTTFsdDlVcmVNVzRNdWNRSEdCTXJTK0pyZDdYd2JYdEZRYVREZnY1bUtDWDNUTnJaZjM5M29lMEIxbzFndVlxRkl1d0hOdVIxUm1uK3dtdXBtQWxheXh3c0xESVNlZVVFVXgxVFdjcWN6WEE9PSJ9>
will
have us re-evaluate this.

We are evaluating alternatives regarding alumni email. Right now we
looking at two options:



Option 1: Allow students to keep their current WPI email address when they
graduate:  @WPI.edu

Option 2: Require students to change to a new “alumni” email address when
they graduate:  @alum.WPI.edu



I would be interested in how alumni email is handled in your institution.
Do you use Option 1, Option 2 or Option 3: None of the above. If you choose
Option 3 can you please explain?



Thanks,
