For those of you who are moving to new addresses, there are a few things you should do. Call or write the Alumni/ae Records office: Building 12-090, 77 Mass. Ave, Cambridge, MA 02139, (617) 253-8270; or send
e-mail to <mitalum@mitvmc.mit.edu>; or go to the alumni/ae Web page and complete the on-line address change form. Make sure we have your current address on file! When an address is changed, it takes care of everything related to the Alumni/ae Association (Technology Review, club mailings, and probably department mailings, too). It does not, however, change the address with other MIT offices (i.e. Bursar, Registrar). If there are any offices like this that would need to know where you are, you should send your new address to them directly. Another small business note-those of you who are members-at-large of our class council, please get in touch with me as soon as possible! You can send e-mail or snail mail or phone. See bottom of this column.
