Nearly 2,000 alumni registered in Skidmore Connect

November 11, 2010

Skidmore ConnectAs of early November, 1,927 alumni have already registered in Skidmore Connect. Many are posting class notes, uploading photos, and friending classmates. Alexandra Wennberg '10 told us that she found the first-time login process "very easy" and the tutorials "helpful"; she adds that she plans to use the network to contact alumni who share her major (neuroscience) and who are working or studying in that field. Thomas Knowles '89 also found the first-time login process "very easy," plans to use the network to submit class notes electronically, and thinks that providing the Skidmore community with an exclusive online social network is "a great idea."
