Although the journal project started in 1997 as a school project a number of graduating students in June 97 retained their journals and continued to use them as a way of interacting with their fellow students.
The interface which allows for secure journals remains in place so they can continue to be used as a way for you to interact with your fellow students.
However, you may wish to use the community
SPHNet, which is geared to the alumni journals, as a noticeboard.
