The document outlines a reorganization and reaffirmation plan for the Alumni Association of Lincoln University (AALU). It notes that currently only one chapter is functional, officer positions are vacant, and less than 1% of alumni are dues-paying members. The plan proposes solutions such as filling vacancies, increasing membership and alumni giving, boosting alumni presence on campus, supporting academic and recruitment goals, and establishing the value of membership. The overall goal is to revitalize the AALU through improved structure, communication, and involvement of alumni.

In the Shadow of the Colossi: Alumni Online Communities in the Age of Faceboo...Francis Zablocki
Your alumni online community can’t compete with Facebook for social conversations, and it can’t compete with LinkedIn for career connections – so don’t even try. It can, however, provide tools and information that alumni cannot find anywhere else. Find out how to combine the benefits of your proprietary network with the major social media outlets to create a one stop toolkit to help your alumni do what they want to do quickly and easily.
Unlike admissions, where the demographic is largely homogeneous in terms of age and technological aptitude, alumni span many different generations and a wide spectrum of comfort levels with technology and preferences for media consumption. It is a real challenge to successfully leverage the right online tools for the right alumni sub-audience while keeping everything under one cohesive brand.
I hope my experience at SUNY Geneseo as manager of the U-Knight launch project and ongoing role as online community manager can help others who are undertaking such projects. I’ll speak about the approach I took to U-Knight and what progress and stumbling blocks have been encountered along the way.

* Alumni relations websites
* Facebook, Twitter, and LinkedIn pages that are targeted towards alumni audiences

The document proposes an alumni engagement plan called ROAR (Re-energized,
Outreach, Advocacy, Resources) with 4 phases: 1) Re-energizing the alumni association,
2) Interacting with students, 3) Career counseling and mentoring programs for each class,
4) Increasing alumni donations. It also proposes leasing campus buildings for alumni
offices and a bed & breakfast to increase alumni presence on campus. The goal is to
engage more alumni expertise with students to enhance academics at Lincoln University.
The Friends of Lincoln Village organization was formed in 2007 to preserve historic sites around Lincoln University, the first historically black college in the US founded in 1854. The organization has been working to get Lincoln University and Lincoln Village designated as a historic district on the National Register of Historic Places. This would recognize their significance in African American history and education. Goals include hiring a preservation planner, updating the National Register nomination, and stabilizing historic buildings. Over 65 people attended an initial historic tour of the campus organized by the group. The Friends of Lincoln Village will continue working to secure the needed resources to have the historic designation completed.

THE SACRIFICE HOW PRO-PALESTINE PROTESTS STUDENTS ARE SACRIFICING TO CHANGE T...indexPub
The recent surge in pro-Palestine student activism has prompted significant responses from universities, ranging from negotiations and divestment commitments to increased transparency about investments in companies supporting the war on Gaza. This activism has led to the cessation of student encampments but also highlighted the substantial sacrifices made by students, including academic disruptions and personal risks. The primary drivers of these protests are poor university administration, lack of transparency, and inadequate communication between officials and students. This study examines the profound emotional, psychological, and professional impacts on students engaged in pro-Palestine protests, focusing on Generation Z's (Gen-Z) activism dynamics. This paper explores the significant sacrifices made by these students and even the professors supporting the pro-Palestine movement, with a focus on recent global movements. Through an in-depth analysis of printed and electronic media, the study examines the impacts of these sacrifices on the academic and personal lives of those involved. The paper highlights examples from various universities, demonstrating student activism's long-term and short-term effects, including disciplinary actions, social backlash, and career implications. The researchers also explore the broader implications of student sacrifices. The findings reveal that these sacrifices are driven by a profound commitment to justice and human rights, and are influenced by the increasing availability of information, peer interactions, and personal convictions. The study also discusses the broader implications of this activism, comparing it to historical precedents and assessing its potential to influence policy and public opinion. The emotional and psychological toll on student activists is significant, but their sense of purpose and community support mitigates some of these challenges. However, the researchers call for acknowledging the broader Impact of these sacrifices on the future global movement of FreePalestine.

2. Re-Organization And Reaffirmation Plan for
the Alumni Association of Lincoln University
Historical Overview
After meeting for their 35th graduation anniversary, several members of the Class of 7T6 began meeting
via teleconferencing to discuss various issues and deficiencies on Lincoln’s campus brought to their
attention through observation, conversation and personal experience. Two concerns dominated the
conversations initially:
5. The state of the Langston Hughes Memorial Library
7. The apparent movement of campus life to a point farther south of the traditional main entrance.
3. Re-Organization And Reaffirmation Plan for
the Alumni Association of Lincoln University
After much deliberation, the team agreed to move forth with a commitment to exercise due diligence in gathering
facts, information, and opinions about the afore-mentioned issues. Several of the team members attended the LU
Board of Trustees meeting on 17SEP2011. They had in-depth and informative conversations with LU’s
leadership including President Ivory Nelson, Vice President Michael Hill, AALU President Tracy Hunter Hayes,
and Trustee member Terrence Farrell to name a few. Several team members also had conversations with
members of the faculty and staff. Overall, the conservations were mixed—some flattering and some not so
flattering.
4. Re-Organization And Reaffirmation Plan for
the Alumni Association of Lincoln University
Our team has resolved to focus its energy, experience and knowledge on an effort we have characterized as Re-
Organization And Reaffirmation of AALU. The AALU is in dire need of resuscitation. The AALU mission and
vision need to be updated. Its operational capacity needs to be augmented and its ability to communicate and
interact with alumni, university officials, students and the community at-large needs to be totally restructured and
professionalized. In order to effectuate a serious revitalization of AALU, we need to take a harder look at defining
the value proposition for anyone participating in the Association, for anyone desiring to attend Lincoln or for
anyone interested in providing financial and other resource support to the school. Once more clearly defined, we
believe that AALU will be more a palatable organization to the general body of the alumni.
5. Re-Organization And Reaffirmation Plan for
the Alumni Association of Lincoln University
Statement of Concern
Currently, there is only one functional chapter in all of AALU, the Philadelphia chapter; when, by definition
the by-laws and graduation data support the establishment of over 200 chapters nationwide. Also, only
three of seven elected AALU officer positions are filled; and, only two of five appointed officer positions
are filled. The AALU by-laws provide for elected officers to represent various regions of the country --
East, West, South and Central. There is nothing stated to define which states comprise those
geographic areas. There are six alumni seats on the LU Board of Trustees but there is not a structure
in place to allow for input or guidance for alumni Trustees on issues of concern from alumni. Of the
10,000 known LU alumni, less than 1% of those individuals are dues paying members of AALU.
6. Re-Organization And Reaffirmation Plan for the Alumni Association of Lincoln University
Solutions
1. Gain greater role and influence on AALU board of directors
a. First, the current vacancies on the Board must be filled immediately. We need to identify nominees
and press for their immediate appointment. Our interest is to enhance AALU by having committed,
creative passionate people serve in positions of leadership.
b. It should also be our priority to interact with the existing officers to build a better bridge to the
association’s future. We need to understand their goals and priorities as we work to energize the
situation.
c. We need to conduct a critical review of the existing AALU by-laws for near term strategic purposed
and for improvements over time. We also need to have a clearer understanding about the current
association meeting and event schedule and the financial commitments that accompany that
schedule.
d. Our team also needs to devise a fact finding instrument for circulation to as many fellow alumni as
possible to gauge their priorities and interests.
e. We must continue to interact with LU administrators, staff and faculty to insure relevance and inclusion
in policy and operational matters affecting the school.
7. Re-Organization And Reaffirmation Plan for the Alumni Association of Lincoln University
2. Increase Alumni membership
a. We must solicit our former classmates to become members of AALU.
b. We must refine the AALU marketing strategy to reach a broader number of people on a more consistent
basis.
8. Re-Organization And Reaffirmation Plan for the Alumni Association of Lincoln University
3. Increase Alumni giving to LU
a. The fundraising aspect of our agenda must first address the financial survival of the AALU. An annual
budget to operate the association is in order and an annual financial commitment by the association
to
contribute to LU must be established.
b. Our recommendation for discussion purposes calls for raising the bar on alumni contributions to AALU.
We must press alumni to buy in to giving AALU a monthly contribution for 60 months (the time period
between 5year reunions). This strategy serves dual purposes in that it gives the AALU a strong
enough revenue stream to actually plan and execute events pertinent to its growth and survival; and it
has the potential to generate a substantial pot of funds to contribute to LU on an annual basis
separate from what individual classes may contribute every five years.
9. Re-Organization And Reaffirmation Plan for the Alumni Association of Lincoln University
4. Increase Alumni presence in campus
a. Here again, the ROAR Plan has begun its focus on this topic. The Development Office and the Career
Services office have endorsed our initial proposal to factor more alumni into activities and events on
campus as student mentors and career counselors. Having already secured initial administration
approval for this plan, we should work to find approving faculty to assist in fleshing out the program as
it relates to their support.
b. It should be the task of whoever is charged with this aspect of ROAR’s plan to secure effective liaison
with both administrative and faculty counterparts to plant the program on campus and to coordinate it
with any other ongoing programs seeking the same audience. It would do ROAR well to find and solicit
presenters, mentors and engagers from amongst the general alumni for the effective execution of
AALU’s participation.
10. Re-Organization And Reaffirmation Plan for the Alumni Association of Lincoln University
5. Support LU academic and recruitment goals
The AALU must commit to building strong chapters wherever five or more alumni reside. These chapters
are the eyes and ears of the national and the university. AALU must develop a cogent strategy for
reaching out to prospective students wherever and for including the university to secure top
candidates for entrance to the university. Each chapter must be challenged to identify and attend local
academic events that showcase students and to present LU as a viable option for continuing their
education. The AALU should establish chapter goals for student recruitment. Strong AALU chapters
should exhibit an infectious alumnus pride that catches the attention of focused high school students
who seek to be a part of something positive and uplifting. The AALU will work with the LU Alumni
Relations office to provide local chapters with promotional materials.
