From a Web site:
"I'm an alumni."
We don't speak or write much Latin these days, but this is a Latin error. It's the equivalent of saying "I'm a people."
"Alumni" is the masculine plural. The feminine plural is "alumnae." The singular words are "alumnus" (male) and "alumna" (female).

How about saying, "I am an alum."
Thank you for trying to bring some awareness of Latin to this world.
Alum is just fine!
