Alumni Directory Online
November 28, 2007
Thanks to much
hard work by Chris Achille, #710, the first public version of our
new Alumni
Directory is up and
running. You can login by clicking the Directory
link at the top of
the RAC website. Currently the database is only partially filled
in; we have some basic info in there and limited
functionality. As further iterations are put in place there
will be more search options and increased capabilities, but for now
we need, more than anything, help populating it with updated
information.
Please visit the directory and create yourself an account. Once logged in you can update not only your own but also other brothers' info. We do have some roll numbers missing names, so please make sure to check the roll numbers you are familiar with and make sure you have filled in any missing spots. Updated contact info is also important, so if you see your own info or another brothers info is incomplete or out of date, please take the time to fill it in.

Visit BitterOldMen.com
September 17, 2007
The website BitterOldMen.com was
started by two early-2000s graduates a couple years ago as a way
for alumni of that era to keep in touch as we disbursed across the
country following graduation. The site has seen very limited
activity lately, and we've decided to try to get more Rensselaer
Acacians using it. We've started decade-specific forums and would
love to see some of the older alumni sign up and keep in touch with
their fellow Acacians. Visit BitterOldMen.com
now and sign up for an account.
