Starting this September, the circulation of the Yale Alumni Magazine will jump to 130,000 because, for the first time in several decades, the magazine will reach all alumni living in the United States.
The Yale Alumni Magazine is not part of the University but is published by a separate alumni-based non-profit.
The publication's circulation has almost doubled in the past two years. Before May 2004, the magazine reached only 70,000 alumni under a circulation plan that limited the readership primarily to Yale College graduates. In May 2004, a grant from the University toward new subscriptions for the graduate and professional schools raised the circulation to 100,000. Now the University and the magazine are joining forces to support subscriptions for the remaining graduate and professional alumni.
"The magazine's mission is to report on the full complexity of Yale University," said the magazine's editor, Kathrin Day Lassila. "We can do that best if we're reaching the full range of the alumni. The Yale alumni are an incredible readership -- accomplished, involved, highly informed -- the kind of readers any publication wants to reach."
The bi-monthly magazine, which is supported primarily by alumni contributions and advertising, will also continue to reach subscribers such as parents of Yale students and friends of the University.
The oldest autonomous alumni publication in the country, the Yale Alumni Magazine seeks to "convey a complete, fair, and accurate understanding of Yale today."
