[quote=Anonymous]Depends on the institution. Of course it's not quantifiable. However, I went to an Ivy, and was part of a group there that has a very active alumni component. I wouldn't call any random person from my university up, but if it's someone related to the activity, I would absolutely reach out, and many of these people are extremely well placed. There's a bunch of people where I wouldn't say "oh, wow, that's the CEO" but instead "oh, that's Bob - haven't seen him since the last gathering of our group. Let's go say hi." I also get calls saying "would you meet with my friend's kid?" and I do it all the time. Of course, you can't always be going to the well and only be looking to see what you can take from the other alums. [/quote]
