We do not currently allow alumni to keep their accounts after they leave
(other than it is a year after graduation that we `figure out' that they
are gone).  I have been pushing to allow alumni to keep their accounts
without luck so far, but now I have an unexpected ally -- the Engineering
College Placement Office has moved their services onto our system -- and
they offer their services to graduates for life...   :-)
