- Increased cyber security, decreased usage combined with the opportunity for long-term cost efficiencies resulted in the decision to discontinue the lifetime alumni email service at UNL. The change also follows the trend of other national universities discontinuing alumni email, including the University of Illinois, UC Davis and University of Florida.
