Travel Tips

• Keeping in mind that some travelers will give over-the-top rave reviews or complaints, it is important to focus on most of the feedback you receive.

• Our travel alumni travel programs are different from general group travel. It is important to educate your travel partners about alumni travel so that they understand our priorities and choices.

• Trust your gut, but focus on your targeted demographic. At times I know that I might not like a certain trip but my demographic will.
