Office of Institutional Advancement

The Office of Institutional Advancement is in the historic Sweeney Hall, where we actively work to support continued contact with our alumni. Becoming an active member of the LeMoyne-Owen Alumni Association is an excellent way to share ideas, valuable input and information, and welcomed expertise that serve to enhance our efforts and contribute to the success of development projects and planned events. More importantly, active membership can provide the perfect opportunity to let us know how you are doing and perhaps to renew relationships with old friends.

LeMoyne-Owen College Alumni Directory Project

in partnership with PCI, Inc. 

About The Project

The 2025 LOC Alumni Directory project is a collaboration between the Alumni Association of LOC and Publishing Concepts Inc. (PCI), a family-owned business in Dallas, Texas, to create a membership directory. We do this project, approximately, every 5 years. The directory will include the names and contact information of all participating alumni.
PCI has been publishing directories for educational institutions for almost 100 years, perfecting the art of collecting essential data, gathering stories, and transforming that information into beautiful, four-color hardbound and digital directories. The project allows the Alumni Association of LOC to update the alumni database (shared with LOC) and receive important information from their members.

The PCI team will collect data until Friday, January 10, 2025. After that, they will enter a post-production phase editing the data. We hope to have the hardbound directory distributed in Fall 2025.

 

PCI Partnership

With our limited resources, we would never be able to tackle a project like this. By partnering with PCI, we are able to access their trained staff of real, live human beings who are excited to listen to what you have to share. PCI will also help collect and assemble the data into the directory that we can share with all alumni. Please note, we have only shared your contact information with PCI in conjunction with this project. We have NOT sold your contact information, or otherwise used it for outside marketing purposes.

 

What’s Next

You will be receiving email and postcard communications from the PCI team with instructions on how to participate.

Frequently Asked Questions by Alumni

I received an email/postcard/phone call from a company asking for my personal information and said they were working with LeMoyne-Owen College. Tell me more about the project.

We have partnered with PCI (also known as Publishing Concepts) to produce our new alumni directory. PCI is a family owned business based in Dallas, TX that has published directories for educational institutions, fraternities, sororities, and military organizations across the nation for over 100 years. This project allows LeMoyne-Owen College to receive important updates to our database so we can better serve our alumni.

Does LeMoyne-Owen College benefit from this at all?

Yes, in a few different ways:

  • Updated Information – allows us to effectively communicate with and engage alumni
  • Legacy – preserves the history of our school
  • Revenue (if applicable) – generates non-dues revenue for alumni programs
  • Pride – wearing apparel shows support and love for our school

How do I know my information will only be used for directory purposes?

PCI is committed to protecting your information. The names, addresses and information provided to PCI for the publication of the Directory will be held confidential by PCI, except to the extent that they are utilized in, or in the preparation of, the Directory and except as required by court order or law.

I would like to verify or update my information. How may I do this?

  • If you received a postcard or an email with a telephone number, you may call the number to speak with a real, live human being representing the LeMoyne-Owen College project. They will verify the information we have on file for you and make any updates where needed.
  • If you received an email with an embedded link, simply click the link to go to the online site and review your information.
  • If you did not receive a postcard or email, you may call the dedicated LeMoyne-Owen College update line at 1-888-822-1601.
  • If you are living internationally or are unable to call the update line, please email customerservice@publishingconcepts.com. PCI will send you a personalized link to update your information.

Can I choose what information prints in the directory?

When you call to update your information, you can tell the representative if you prefer any of your information be excluded. You can also communicate your preferences to PCI’s customer service help desk at 1-800-982-1590 / customerservice@publishingconcepts.com or to the Alumni Association directly.

Can anyone purchase a directory?

The LeMoyne-Owen College Alumni Directory is available for sale only to LeMoyne-Owen College alumni. You will be listed in the directory whether you decide to purchase a copy or not.

When will I receive my directory?

The total duration of the directory project is about 12 months. Since we began the project in July of 2024, the directories will be distributed in July of 2025.

I ordered a directory/package over the phone and would like to cancel my order. How do I do this?

Contact PCI’s customer service help desk at 1-800-982-1590 / customerservice@publishingconcepts.com and they will take care of this for you.
