This is a page to help combine a few ideas about keeping Alumni involved in clubs and socs activity.
Brainstorming
Just getting started with this, throw down any ideas you have:
- A "clubs and socs day" for alumni, encouraging them to come back and re-join and talk to DCU societies
- Working with the DCU Alumni Relations officer on projects
- A LinkedIn/OpenBC style website specific to DCU, to categorise alumni & their DCU contacts
- An official list of DCU societies/clubs with active Alumni membership (Redbrick a good example)
- Discounted postgraduate courses / further education for Alumni, to encourage more study at DCU?
- "Alumni talks" series, possible monthly talk from an Alumni on a topic, could be archived
- Alumni have a lot of experience, useful for training etc.
Good Idea
Why is some sort of alumni involvement in a club or society a *good idea*?
- Alumni are coming back to DCU to help out with Clubs & Socs independently, and for free
- It's a good way for alumni to keep in touch with eachother, DCU doesn't really facilitate that
Bad Idea
Why is some sort of alumni involvement in a club or society a *bad idea*?
- Most of the power needs to be with the ordinary members, it'd be bad if the oldies were throwing their weight around years after they've left
- Who's going to pay for all this lark? Current DCU students?
