Welcome to your "Tiffin Columbian Online" Alumni Site
Quick Menu  • News  • Topic  • Menu  • Almuni  • Enrollment  • Options  • Selection

The above TCO alumni site is active.  It's the TCAA site below that was abandoned!


On November 20, 2010, the TCAA apparently choose to discontinue their web site.

Continued TCAA contact can be maintained via their e-mail address: tc-alumni@yahoo.com.
Addition information will be provided TCAA via this TCO site's "enrollment" procedure.
The TCAA domain is an active entity, and hopefully in the future TCAA will return to the web.
Currently, an "Alumni Registration" is available via the Tiffin City Schools Site.
Some TC Alumni are still seeking the TCAA website via this site and search engines.

These are the public links the Tiffin Columbian Alumni has lost.

      ..... and many more not specified here.
    The greatest TCAA assets lost were the data base Class Lists, thought limited, they were informative regarding graduate names by graduation year along with TCAA memberership, knowledge of known location, and life status.
    In addition, photos used to compliment weddings and death notices were appreaciated.  I do regret not having regularly downloading the class list, as though in the future, they would have been out-of-date, they would have been correct for names of class graduates.

  Question for TCAA: There are 72 TC class roll files on the TCAA development computer.  If these files could be uploaded to any server in the world, then some class information could be provided to the TC alumni.   The Columbian High School's TCS system system might be considered.  It may also be maintained by the TCAA members, and even provide TCAA a web presence.

Can the Spirit be Kept Alive on the Web?
*#* post2 / Initial Frame

Having lost any TCAA "positive Alumni Class mindset", there are three current methods
for TC Alumni communication:  your Class Page, the TCO Message Board and Facebook.



*#* post3 / Initial Frame
An apparent statement clarification see is needed for the following:
      Our TCO tracker utility  documents  those Tiffin Columbian Alumni classmates who specifically seek this site.   Presently, there is no known linkage that would direct graduates to this Alumni related site from the TCAA site.    With a new TCAA President and Database Manager,  might there possibility be a more positive
"alumni class page" mindset for support of our school alumni.
      If your TC class year wishes a "alumni class page", and you don't have an Alumni Class Page of your own,   your class does have some options:
  • Find a classmate with the skill and desire to built you one.
  • Pay a webmaster to build you one.
  • Ask TCAA to support class site efforts.
  • Find a classmate to support a Class Page here.
  • or to do nothing ..... this option will lead to no class page here.
Note: A month after their communication and my clarification see , TCAA abandonded their site hosting.
*#* post4 / Initial Frame
  This is not the TCS nor the TCAA site.    It's your TCO Alumni Site
  Is there an actual functional public web cam in Seneca County?
This is the Wood County Fostoria High School web cam site.
Preface
*#* post5 / Initial Frame
If you are this TC classmate, then please contact this webmaster.  Thanks

This has been to most frequent viewer for years?   Multiple times weekly.   Why?
*#* post6 / Initial Frame
This is an interesting search.  Band Boosters support was offered years ago, when
this site was the TCAA site.   Would you consider asking for TCAA support today?

  Over 40 hits are made a month on your
  TCO site.   If you don't see any change,
  then you need to make an effort to
  contribute something.  It's your web site.

Just your Class Enrollment would do that.

Viewing the TCO Alumni site and your

Have you figured out
how to stay on top?
Since the "Change",  I get the conservative cartoons as in both prior administrations.
So, if the conservative grads continue, then beware of their contributions to the site!
It is hard for this "Tiffin Kid", to believe TC could have contributed to these attitudes!

"Keeping Our Alumni Spirit Alive ...Today and Every Day"
   Classes of 1984 and 1999 are webmastering Class Pages
They selected another third party Internet site for designing their own Class Website.  Looks like a good site to consider.  Go look!
- - - - Ron Reed  February 20, 2010
    All eighty TC0 Alumni Class sites have a new generic format.
At the top and bottom of each class site is a menu.  There is a need, and a request made for an Online Class Representative if the class does not already have a volunteer.  There is an "class enrollment" section.  There are links to TCAA;  sections for photos and communication specifically related to each class.  Each site presents alumni communications so that you need not surf for alumni communications.  You don't have to be an Internet site designer since your OCR and this Webmaster can maintain each site.  And, it is FREE .  Interfacing is all done with e-mails from all classmates.  Enroll now. - - - - Ron Reed  October 28, 2008
   TCAA's quoted Alumni support warrants Class Changes
Though TCAA's statement of alumni support need not be provided,  the Tiffin Columbian Alumni Class Sites warrant change.  Numerous classes have and are selecting third party environments to provide their Alumni Class communication and support.  These efforts, now taking place, have been the efforts of this webmaster in light of TCAA's current and prior web site envolvement.  The Class of 1957 and Class of 1959 have made a their change...

Registered Tiffin Columbian Classmates
   
In the late 90's I gave Classmate.com my email address.  I never joined.  A Venice High classmate found my name.  Our VHS '53 class cooridinator had been looking for me for seven years.  It was then that I began to webmaster the VHS site.  The subsription cost is twice the TCAA dues. I have been sending "Unsubscribe" e-mail from Classmate e-mails for 10 years.... they seem to just ignore the request. -


  


Your Classmate.com costs might warrant some thought.  All "accessible" classmates must be members. Since, I am "registered" and can't be contacted by "classmates.com" members nor other "reqistered" classmates, one might conclude your membership or registeration could result in the same situation.  Frequently, I compose e-mails to classmates.  After the message is "sent", the verification message reads "Your message was sent! Become a Gold Member so `the addressee` can read your message!"  Thus, I assume my message is not received. -

A note for potential "webbies".  Always be observent!  Having 14 years of webmastering experience,
I learned three unexpected things while placing the inner web page shown within the frame above.
   1) What is the default background of a web page when none is "defined"?
            a) You will have to use a Mozilla browser to find the answer.
            b) You will then have to determine how IE alters that BG.
   2) What mouse function is not functional outside the frame that is possible inside the frame?
   3) Even more unexpected is what the possible inner mouse function provides.
Remember most of what you will learn does not come from teachers, courses and tutorials. - Ron

Attention all Alumni Class Sites their Classmates Enrolled.
The current and potential web sites for each class will be maintained by the current TCAA webmaster, and supported by each class.
What is requested is that the class must have an active Online Class Representative, OCR (new requirement).  This person must have an email address.  They must remain active and committed to being an OCR.  They will act as the Internet contact for their class, and interact with the TCO Webmaster.  It may be best that this person live within the immediate Tiffin area, but would not be required. 
Any persons willing to design a web site, only if they wish, for their Class of Columbian High School, and is willing to conform to a limited number of constraints, would you please contact the Webmaster.

"Being alumni means giving back whatever we can, any way we can, to help preserve
the unity and loyalty - to keep the spirit alive." - Jack Noller, TCAA President, 2002 
"Two commanders on the field is one too many." - Ulysses S. Grant
"I believe that it is important to keep track of people who have all graduated
from one High School" - A concerned TC '89 Classmate, August 2008
"I need to make this clear.  TCAA is not meant to benefit the
alumni.  It is meant to benefit the students in Tiffin City Schools.
We are not an agent to support alumni, we are an agent to support
kids.  Any benefit that alumni get is residual."

     TCAA is actively seeking a new webmaster willing to serve on a volunteer basis.
That webmaster can start with a new slate.  There are very little restrictions
as to content.  If qualified and interested, send us an e-mail: TCAA.   ( 9/2/2008 )

Read this New Site Preface, then on to either site!
This page has to end somewhere.

     It has taken three months, from July thru September 2008, to get this site where we are today.  Before July 2008, the official TCAA site consisted of additions to the "Main Menu" with timely deletions that were discarded or archived.
     Throughout the first six years of the TCAA site, the composition of the web site was "99 and 0.44%" that of our alumni and this webmaster.  What basically caused the creation of the TCAA site above and this site, was the "0.56%" input and involvement from TCAA sources.  ( 10/2/08 ) • Click either banner to turn this page!

This URL address was this Webmaster's original site in support of TCAA - Established in 1999 - Activateded when needed.

A web site without a reason to return often is nothing more than a library catalogue file.
