It’s easy to lose touch with college friends after graduating. But the UNT Alumni Association, in a new partnership with Harris Connect, hopes to help alumni from around the world reconnect with each other and the university through its upcoming directory.

Over the next few months, Harris Connect, the largest alumni publication company in the U.S., will be contacting UNT graduates by phone, e-mail and mail to verify and update their contact and career information and help produce the hardcover and CD publication. Alumni also will have the opportunity to update information online through a Harris Connect site. The alumni directory will be available for purchase with a delivery anticipated for fall 2010.

The directory’s four-color introduction will be filled with prominent UNT personalities and school history, and the book will include a section alumni can personalize with their own photos and memories from UNT.

“Through the alumni directory, old school friends will be easier and faster to find and you will be able to reconnect with classmates in your major or from your school of study,” says Derrick P. Morgan, the association’s executive director. “This will be a great resource to network and stay connected with other alumni.”
