I'd like to see a redesign of the individual directory tile as well as the full profile.
For the individual profile:
  • if no photo, use first initial of first and last name (see inconsistent use of initials in screenshot below)
  • provide options for users to add other (limited) fields in the white space like title, company, education
  • add additional filter fields: deceased
For the full profile:
  • badges/callouts for certain groups of alumni (Reunion committee members, alumni association board members, etc.)
  • admin options to re-order how info displays (ex: move employment info higher)
  • add the ability to search for a verified group. When admin create a new verified group, create a selection for "search on directory."
  • remove "% complete" indicator - this drives alums crazy when they can't reach 100%
The directory is the powerhouse of the platform and is the main driver of traffic to our site, but it could be drastically improved in both function and aesthetics.
