Inclusions and Exclusions
Inclusions:
- Alumni with valid contact information- selects all alumni who have a home, business, or other valid contact address on the database
- Alumni donors-anyone who has made a gift during a discrete fiscal year period
Exclusions:
- Alumni without a valid address on their record are not considered "reachable", and therefore are not factored into the participation rate
- Currently we do not include alumni with only a valid email address (i.e. require a valid address)
