Frequently Asked Questions

How might I use the online directory?

• Establish a network of professional contacts within or outside your field.
• Search for alumni within a specific area of interest or geographical location.

What information is in the directory?
You will be able to access basic personal information, as well as add information about your College activities, overseas trips while in College, and more. The "Update My Info" link on the website shows what information can be viewed as well as how to update and add information to your profile.

How do I access the alumni directory?
The College recently sent you a unique username and password, via e-mail and/or U.S. mail. Once you have that information, just go to www.lclark.edu/findalumni. Don't know your username and password? Click here to have it sent to your email address. Or, contact the alumni office at alumni@lclark.edu, or toll free at 800.753.9292.

How do I change my personal profile?
After logging onto the website, you can change any or all of your personal information (click on “Update My Info”), as well as establish and/or change the privacy settings associated with this information (click on “My Privacy Preferences”).

How do I get in touch with people who have hidden their contact information?
You will be able to send your profile to fellow alumni and ask them to contact you. It’s easy…simply click on the “Get In Touch” link located at the bottom of each person's profile page. If we have an accurate email address for them, the information will be sent automatically, otherwise, we'll send your note to them via the U.S. postal system.

What is Lewis & Clark doing to prevent spam?
Only alumni will have access to the Alumni Directory. In addition, users will only be able to look at 70 records each week. This limit is high enough to be useful to alumni, but low enough to hinder alumni “spammers” who prefer to harvest mail addresses in batches of thousands or more.

What is shown for deceased alumni?
When an alum is marked as deceased, the only information that is provided is their class year and name. This is done to protect the privacy of the deceased.
