Hi All,

We allow alumni to keep email indefinitely (option 1). However,

    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 <http://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?
