Make class listservs sign-up only, not entire class by default. Create a blast function to all class members for class officers only to use so that they do not have rely on listservs.

The current class listserv function is already "sign-up only". In other words, alumni must ask to be subscribed to their class listserv (club and SIG listservs work the same way) to be added to the list - it is not all classmates by default. See the AYA website (http://www.aya.yale.edu/lists/) for more information.
In addition, we do have a blast email function which class officers can make use of by contacting their AYA staff liaison. This functionality can be used to send email to everyone that Yale has an email address for, with the exception of those classmates who have asked not to be contacted by email. AYA staff work with class officers to ensure that we are using this tool appropriately, so that classmates don't feel they are getting too many email messages from the class.
