Alumni can be visible or invisible, engaged or disengaged. They can speak highly of their college experience--or not.

One of the ways is to create some sort of Web tool to interact and communicate with former students and stakeholders. An alumni community built around a Web-based portal provides a single location to access information and services in the context of your institution's home page or alumni Web site.
