I would like to keep better track of where students have gone when they graduate, especially as you each go onto medical, dental, pharmacy, graduate etc. training and what majors you’ve had while here at Hunter. To do this I thought it would be fun to develop a photo album which would be available to me and to all of you, but that I won't make public. (Each of us would have an access code to enter the site).  I think that this will help faculty when you are asking for those pesky evaluations (it will jog their memories better) and when you apply to schools and begin interviewing I will be able to hopefully “match” you with a former Hunter student in attendance at that institution! The applying student may gather insights into the program and interviewing process by these first-hand accounts, and often find a place to stay as well. Those alumni who don't want to be contacted could have a “privacy” mode on their contact information.  I have had great success with evaluations coming back quickly and with well thought out comments when students submit evaluations with their pictures on them.  If anyone is really computer savvy we could try and scan your pictures onto the evaluation sheets in advance for you thus giving you personalized evaluation sheets to hand out to faculty.  I would like to begin this as soon as possible; this would be especially useful for those of you who will be applying next year as you need passport photos for the secondary applications to medical schools anyway.  Let me know what you think and if you would like to participate just send me a picture with your name, major and career goal.  If you have already graduated or will be attending a health professions school this year, please include this information as well.
