Registering and Logging In
Everyone Must Register
The Classmates Directory section of the site is only open to registered Yale ‘58 graduates.
For a combination of technical and security reasons we were not able to import user names and passwords from the Reunion Technology classbook site.
So, you enter the Classmates Directory by clicking on the “Classmates” button in the left menu. This opens a login window
If you’ve never registered before, click on the “Register” link, bottom left.
If you’ve already registered, clicking on Classmates will either take you right into the site or to the login window.
Type in Username and Email
Your user name can be anything you want, upper and/or lower case.
Your email must be a valid working email address, as you will be emailed a password.
If you do not receive the confirmation email, check your spam filters.
Respond to Confirmation Email
You’ll receive an email listing our Username, a Password and a clickable link.
Copy, or otherwise note the password, then click on the link.
Log In
On the Log In page, fill in username and password.
Check the box "Remember Me", then in future visits your browser should automatically log you in.

If you’d like to change your password to something more easily remembered, click on "Profile" in the upper right corner.
Updating Your Profile
Scroll down to the bottom of the Profile page. 1. Type the new password twice, then 2. click on "Update Profile."
After you register, tech support will link your registration to your records, so that only you will be able to make edits. We will do this within 24 hours of receiving your registration and will send you a confirming email. Once we’ve done that, you can go to the site and edit your records.
