I get that, I never meant it to sound like I wanted the alumni section to replace students and OGs meeting each other at the track. I was just thinking that if a new student hears the name Jay Ray or Gerald, they could read up about your experience with MM. It would help them recognize that you're an important member. Just an idea, thats all

Not to sound like a dick, but I don't think thats what the Campus Events forum was for. Its just for announcing local events that pertain to MM. I never saw any division created from it until some of you felt it was dividing MM. I don't see why you can't post in it if the topics are kept ON topic...if you could would you accept it?

I honestly don't know how we could garner enthusiasm, maybe some alumni showing up to a meeting during the semester? Do you guys still do the car presentations at meetings? What is the focus at the meetings and where in general to people's interests lie?
I think it would be cool if some of you showed up to meetings if you can. Some of you have more track experience then others so who better to talk about attending track events than you? Overall I think we can do a better job of getting students and OGs together, but more than that we have to actually do what we say and stick to it. Again I'm hoping we can work some stuff out this year to get people more involved...I personally had a blast last year just from the meetings and social events and ride alongs I got, but if you think more can be done then that just means more fun :o
