Biographical Maintenance
The Records & Research team traces lost alumni, records donor wishes regarding recognition and anonymity, reconnects grads who have lost touch with each another, verifies information and provides sign-on details to alumni who are having problems accessing the Carleton Café Online Community. The creation of new records and the adjustment of outdated records is, for the most part, performed by the Records & Research team of Advancement Services. They also ensure that activities, including event attendance, awards, and athletic team participation are recorded in Banner.
