Alumnus, Alumna, Alumni, Alumnae

Alum is hydrated potassium aluminum sulfate and has been used in cosmetics, food additives, flame retardants, taxidermy, and a variety of other uses. The term "alum" can also be used to refer to a whole category of sulphate compounds, though strangely none of them had ever graduated from college.
