[QUOTE="DReq, post: 1794265, member: 11449"] From what information I can find it is a "partnership" between alumni associations to "update the directory" and it just happens to be epidemic as a sudden need for these updates. I have two different alma maters sending the cards at the exact same time and many others are also doing the same. I am less concerned about UIUC trying to raise money than I am about the partner company collecting tons of data to sell on the internet to advertisers. I put it in the scam category. [/QUOTE]
