I am the newsletter chairman for my alumnae club which is three suburban Dallas cities and over 800 women (yes, there are a lot of Pi Phis in Texas!!). Unless you have a committee of at least 6 women to help you, it is absolutely worth the money to have the printer collate and fold for you! I do an 8 page fall edition that goes to the entire list and a winter edition that goes to the dues paid members (around 200). Doing it as an11x17 double sided copy will cut down on printing costs and postage (Office Max charges by image, so 11x17 costs that same as 8 1/2 x11. We get a revised printout every summer from our HQ and we request change of addresses and returns from the post office. The Club's VP of Membership is the return address. We don't have time to go checking universities and I'm not sure that they would give them to you without consent.
I am in the process of putting together a website and will put it on the website but our club feels strongly that we need to continue mailing to everyone every year. Members come and go as their lives change but we don't want them to totally lose touch with us.
