VT People Search Affiliations
The VT People Search uses affiliations to describe your association
with Virginia Tech. You may have several relationships
with Virginia Tech, and therefore, many affiliations.
For example, many employees take a course, many enrolled
students have an on-campus job, and many graduate students
are alumni from their undergraduate days.
You can check your affiliations through My VT. For more information,
see Viewing your Virginia Tech
