The major news for this issue is that we are getting a listserv developed specifically for our class. Based on overwhelmingly positive feedback from classmates who attended our reunion this past May, we will be communicating with each other more frequently than the thrice-yearly Kellogg World class notes have allowed.

More details will be forthcoming, but for now, I encourage all of you to update your information on Kellogg's Web site so that you will be included in this listserv. If you are not familiar with listservs, they are discussion mailing lists, or electronic newsletters, to which everyone can contribute. Your email information is protected by the Kellogg School and therefore will not be used for any other purposes beyond communicating with each other.

What can you put in a listserv email? I'm hoping that we will use this as a forum to update our colleagues on our successes, both personal and professional, similar to the information that is now written in Kellogg World. In addition, I'm hoping we can also use this listserv to enrich each other on business opportunities, strategies, etc., as well as great places to vacation, etc. Since communication is two-way, the hope is that we stay in touch with each other better and continue the camaraderie and enthusiasm all of us walked away with from the reunion.

The Class of '95 has successfully been using a system similar to this with terrific results. Let's not let our younger alumni show us up!

For now, please go to alumni.kellogg.northwestern.edu/network_tools/index.htm. At the top of the screen — next to the search box — click on "Update Profile" and update your personal information.

Any questions, feel free to send me an email: poat@comcast.net.
