  Alumni Notes Guidelines

Whether your title is secretary, scribe, or correspondent, your task is to provide YAM with news from and about your classmates. It is a worthy assignment, and most who have done it agree that it is both fulfilling and fun. And since this is your magazine, each of you has a personal stake in the quality of the product. In an effort to make your job and ours as easy as possible, we have put together a set of guidelines for you to use when submitting your Notes. We hope you will find it helpful. If there are questions it leaves unanswered, please feel free to write, e-mail, or call.
