ALUMNI DIRECTORY FAQ (Frequently Asked Questions)
1. I received an email/postcard/phone call from a company asking for my personal information. They said they were working on a directory for MidAmerica Nazarene University. Is this a legitimate project, or is it a scam?
We have partnered with PCI (also known as Publishing Concepts) to produce our new alumni directory. PCI is a company located in Dallas, TX that publishes directories for educational institutions, fraternities, sororities and military organizations across the nation. This project allows MidAmerica Nazarene University to receive important updates to our database so we know more about our alumni and how we can better serve you and future alumni.
2. How do I know my information will only be used for directory purposes?
MidAmerica Nazarene University has a contractual agreement with PCI that states:
a. The names, addresses and information provided to PCI by MidAmerica Nazarene University 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.
b. The Directory will be made available only to alumni of MidAmerica Nazarene University. Upon completion of the project, PCI will return to MidAmerica Nazarene University any and all electronic files that have been supplied by MidAmerica Nazarene University or produced by PCI in connection with the production of the Directory.
3. I would like to verify and update my information. How may I do this?
If you have received a postcard or an email with a telephone number, you may call the number to speak with a dedicated representative for the MidAmerica Nazarene University project. The representative will verify all the information we have on file for you and make any updates where needed. One of the numbers for the MidAmerica Nazarene University alumni is 1-877-875-5980.
If you have received an email with an embedded link, you may go to the online site to review your information. If you have questions, you may call PCI’s customer service desk at 1.800.982.1590.
4. Can anyone purchase a directory?
The MidAmerica Nazarene University Alumni Directory is available for sale only to MidAmerica Nazarene University alumni.
5. When will I receive my directory?
The total duration of the directory project is about 10 months. Since we began the project in December of 2015 the directories will be distributed in October of 2016.
6. I ordered a package containing the Discounted Companion Airline Certificate, but I haven’t received the post card requesting verification of my address.
For those who purchase a package containing the Discounted Companion Airline Certificate, they will receive a postcard within 2 -3 weeks and will direct them to go to the PCI website to initiate the certificate process by entering their ID # and order # (shown on the postcard) and verify their mailing address. Alternatively, the buyer can call a toll free number (also shown on the postcard) and leave a voicemail to initiate the certificate process.
You will receive a business envelope that contains the guidelines, terms and conditions, as well as the certified voucher from Award Headquarters so you can begin to make your travel arrangements.
