Why was I automatically subscribed to an email group?
The Alumni Association may subscribe you to an email group if your interests or affiliations as shown in your profile match the purpose of the email group. If you would like your record modified so that you will be withdrawn from all Infinite Connection email group activity, please send email to help@alum.mit.edu. Please note that doing this will remove you from all email groups you are subscribed to. Also note that alumni cannot sign you up to the lists they manage, they can only invite you to join.
