Say Hello!
That friendly voice on the other end of the line might be the outbound call representative for PCI, the firm managing the publication of the 2004 Eli Broad College of Business and Eli Broad Graduate School of Management Alumni Directory.
Business alumni who have not responded to the mailed questionnaire or who have not been contacted by mail can call 800-982-1589 to update their information.
When published this directory will be a valuable tool to help you renew and re-establish connections with former classmates and friends. If you have questions about the project, please contact the Broad Alumni Office.
Alumni leaders activate Career Coach Program
