Connecting

 

If you are interested in connecting with some old friends or roommates, there are several avenues you can explore.

A Yahoo Group has been created for Stebbins alumni to share info.  To join click on the following link: http://groups.yahoo.com/group/StebbinsHall/.  If you join this group you will be able to
Read messages from other Stebbins alumni and post your own.
View photos, house lists, study room wall quotes (circa 1984) and other hopefully interesting or entertaining info.
View the contact info for other alums. More details below.
UC Berkeley has created an online alumni community.  To join this community click on https://cal.berkeley.edu/indexDefault.asp and sign up.  Once you are registered you will find an alumni search function.  If you are lucky and if your friend has kept in touch with the University, you may be able to find out in which city and state they live.  Then you can try www.switchboard.com to see if you can locate your friend's phone number or USPS address.  If that doesn't work and you are willing to spend some money, you can try www.ussearch.com.

 

Yahoo Group Details

The Yahoo Group has a restricted membership.  The reason is to protect uninvited guests from accessing the contact info of Stebbins alumni.  Those who request membership will be asked a couple of simple questions to verify they know about Stebbins.
There are several areas of the Stebbins Hall Yahoo Group that may be of interest to you.  On the left side of the Group home page you will see several links.
The "Database" area is where a table exists containing contact info for alumni. If you like you can add your contact info to this table (or just send it to webmaster@stebbinshall.com and it will be added for you).
The "Messages" area is where you can read messages posted by others and post your own.
The "Files" area is where people can share info such as house lists from various years.
To join a Yahoo Group you must provide an email address.  And this will lead to an increase in spam (this is how Yahoo makes money off of this otherwise free service).  I recommend that you join any Yahoo Group using either an email address with a good spam filter (I use yahoo for my email and it does a good job of filtering spam) or use an email address other than your primary one.

Good luck re-connecting with your Stebbins friends!
