5/30 anyone stupid enough to join the cal alumni society know of any
other benefits other than a stupid plate cover, another email
address, and the constant harrassing for donations? i thought
about joining but there doesn't seem to be a single reason.
-- troll baiter
\_ What email address? -Alum soc. member
\_ yourname@alum.calberkeley.org
\_ it buys you connections, but not always...
\_ you don't need to be in the society to get constantly harassed
for donations... - Bitter Alum
\_ I haven't ever been harassed, but I spent the $400
when I graduated to become a life member. I'm not
sure what its good for though, the only tangable
benefit (if you can call it that) for me is getting
the California magazine. I'm not sure about the
library use though, do you need a special library
card or alum card? I don't have either.
\_ I pledged $200 and then refused to send in the check.
After 4 or 5 letters, they gave up, and never called again ever.
\_ UC library use and rsf discounts if you are close to any of these
- stupid cal alumni society member
\_ I got the library use without paying. --another cal alum
\_ Uh, how? -- Marco
\_ Uh, use your student ID. -- Polo
\_ Uh, use your student ID. -- Paolo
\_ Uh, use your student ID. -- Polo (don't change the name)
\_ uh, that doesn't work when you're NOT A VALID STUDENT
\_ I just whined and said I didn't have time to fill
out the forms and could I just use it the one time.
Always works. New student staff everytime.
\_ California magazine.
\_ You're supposed to put a " :-) " after a joke.
\_ I think they help you build up your human network for advancing
your career, or so I read. -- yuen
\_ Yeah right. You can talk to all the other fuzzy majors
about the latest burger flipping techniques and speed
filling a tank?
\_ hey, that info's important. --philosophy major
