Welcome to the MIT Class of 1998's Home Page!
We are the MIT Class of 1998 and our mission is to enhance the value of the MIT degree, build community, and celebrate our shared experience. This website is your gateway to activities and news for Class of 1998, a way to find out what your fellow alumni are doing and stay connected.
Connecting With Classmates Online Using Facebook and LinkedIn
With the 10yr reunion only months away and the spirit of reconnecting in the air, we've been working hard to connect fellow classmates online on Facebook and LinkedIn. In the process it's been amazing to see all the weddings, babies, careers, and travels that people have been up to. For those that are not familiar with these sites, LinkedIn is a career networking oriented site that allows you to put up your professional profile and build networks with other friends and colleagues while Facebook is more socially oriented and a great way to keep up with what's going on with friends thru status messages, photos, and fun applications.
To join us on LinkedIn:
Visit linkedin.com and login/join. Next, search for our virtual profile "Mitninetyeight Guy" and add him as a connection - if you need to enter it this profile has email address: mit98guy@yahoo.com. By adding this connection you will be connected to lots of other classmates on LinkedIn, which can be invaluable for career advice and job hunting. After you have an account we also encourage you to join our class group by visiting this link http://www.linkedin.com/e/gis/56813/2B3F674DBACD - join requests will take a day or so to confirm.
To join us on Facebook:
For a more social scene, visit/join facebook.com and then search for our virtual profile "Mitninetyeight Guy" and add him as a friend. By adding this profile you can find and connect with other classmates and check out a lot of photos of what people have been up to. You'll even be able to upload and tag photos of your own to share with the '98s.
Check back here periodically as we update the site with new events, stories about volunteers and alumni, and information about ways to participate.
