How do I find out whether somebody I know went to a certain university or not?

[neonerd]

I want to see if somebody I know went to MIT or not. I don't know their graduating year; I just have their first and last name. Is there some database I can run a search through of past alumni?

did you try the mit website? most universities have a thing where you can look up a person.

I tried here, but I think I need to be currently attending MIT to be able to use that.

I don't know, hack into MIT's student records? Or have some bum steal a laptop w/ all the student records from 1950-present from their administration office?

ask them which dorm did he/she live in? and check to see if such dorm name exist??

Don't think they'd answer that...I figured colleges had some online "yearbook" where you could search for past alumni.
