Site Notice
Written by U of M Band Alumni Society   
Monday, 07 April 2008

As you may have noticed, there is a new bit of content on the site. The Executive Council considered and approved a request from a former band member to advertise his small business on the web site in exchange for a small fee and potential scholarship donations. During the course of this discussion, the option of adding a small, unobtrusive section of text-based ads with the specific purpose of covering the costs associated with hosting the web site.

If you have strong feelings about this proposal please let us know. The current plan is to conduct a trial period of 9 months for this content and evaluate the appropriateness and effectiveness at that time, but the feedback and concerns of our membership are important to us.
