[QUOTE="Bruce Wayne, post: 79072, member: 231"] Absolutely go. First, there is no secret handshake or diploma check anyway at "Alumni" gatherings. I am not a Tech grad but I went to the Alumni Association game viewings in Gotham all the time (not kidding actually as I lived in Brooklyn for 9 years). I even attended an Alumni Association gathering where Paul Hewitt came and talked to us and answered questions for an hour or so when he happened to be in the area (recruiting and visiting his family I assume). Depending on how formal and active the Alumni group is they may try and discuss things like raising funds to contribute to a scholarship fund; or, like the one Hewitt attended, get him to sign a few basketballs and then hold auctions for them to raise scholarship funds for Tech students from that geographic area. But this is all stuff a non-alum can take part in. The more Tech fans the merrier. I suppose about the only thing alum-oriented you could expect is that many people assume a fan is an alum so may start the small talk off with "what year were you?" or such like topics. [/QUOTE]
