This document discusses how alumni clubs can leverage social media platforms like Facebook and LinkedIn to better connect with students and alumni. It provides guidance on creating a Facebook group for an alumni club and engaging alumni through the Notre Dame Alumni Network on LinkedIn. Key recommendations include establishing a club Facebook group with a clear name and logo, regularly posting events and content, and designating multiple administrators.
