Alumni service

Quill and Scroll can create an alumni directory for your chapter

Planning a fundraiser for your school’s journalism program? How about an anniversary of your chapter or some other big event? Maybe you just want to identify some “big names” from your chapter’s past to invite as guest speakers?

Quill and Scroll has a record of every single person inducted into the organization since its founding in 1926. That’s more than 1.5 million people worldwide over the past 95 years.

If you’re a relatively new Quill and Scroll school or organization, then you likely already know all the names you’ve inducted over the past few years. But if you’ve had a Q&S charter for longer than that, we can help.

Here’s what you can do

Begin by emailing us at [email protected]. Simply let us know in that email what school you’re from and how soon you’d like a complete list of Q&S alumni from your school. All of our records from 1926 through 2004 are in paper form, so it takes some time to retrieve those from our files in the basement of the Adler Journalism Building.

Once you send the email request, we’ll get started putting together the list. When we’re done, we’ll invoice you based on a $50/hour rate. We anticipate most requests can be completed in less than four hours, though it may take us a few days to set aside time to complete the request.

You receive a list of members’ names, the year they were inducted, and an email for those inducted over the past decade. The rest is up to you!

Thanks for being an active Quill and Scroll chapter.
