alum for <strong>the</strong> rest of your life. That was <strong>the</strong> message Alumni<br />

Association organizers conveyed to <strong>the</strong> graduating Class of<br />

2005 at <strong>the</strong> “Almost Alumni Affair,” held during April in<br />

Memorial Gym. About half <strong>the</strong> Class of 2005—540 students—turned<br />

Begun in 2004, <strong>the</strong> Almost Alumni Affair is meant to<br />

help departing seniors stay connected with friends and <strong>the</strong><br />

University and to show <strong>the</strong>m how Vanderbilt can be a networking<br />

resource through <strong>the</strong> Alumni Association and its<br />

regional clubs worldwide. Twenty-nine alumni volunteers<br />

with alumni, contribute to <strong>the</strong> Senior Class Fund, pick up<br />

official class rings and more.<br />
