CIMBA is a university based in Asolo, Italy that grants MBA's to students from all over the world. Due to the distance between the different student groups, planning, coordinating, and building the alumni network has proved challenging. Our alumni association membership is in the thousands, however the membership groups are spread out between the multitude of social media networks out there, such as LinkedIn, Facebook, and (hold your breath) Twitter.
Earlier this year, I began work on the http://cimbaalumni.com which is built on Drupal 6 and has many of the popular modules working together to provide students a common meeting place that allows for the same functionality that is provided on those other sites.
The site is infant and we have roughly 50 users signed up in the first week, with a target of 75% of alumni totaling over 10,000. It will be interesting to see how Drupal handles the large number of international students, but I am also excited to see it go!
Enjoy!

Not suprised at your high sign-up rate, your clear calls to action are user focused and helpful.
