I got several emails as well as a few little yellow postcards. I ignored them, because the last time I got something like that and called, they tried to sell me the directory they were compiling.

Not getting any emails, but keep getting calls from an 844 number. I've been ignoring it. I've been giving money to KSU since they killed my major a few years ago.

I ended up answering one of the 5 or 6 per day that I was getting. I was so tired of them calling my cell and home phone that i finally answered. They are trying to sell directories. After about 30 seconds i told them I was not buying a directory, they were not as interested in updating my info. It seemed to be a company and not actually the school making the call. At least I now I am not getting calls from them all day long.

Yep, they do this every year.

Then they want you to buy the "Alumni Directory".

I actually gave them my info ONCE and bought the Directory ONCE as a curiosity.

I ignore their calls and their cards now.
