Hi, here's how I would do this:
1. Create a View that shows all the Alumni you want to include in the random results.
2. In the View editor screen, choose "Random order" in the Ordering section and choose to display only 1 item in the Limit and Offset section.
3. If you cannot see these options in the View editor, enable them by scrolling to the top of the page and clicking "Screen Options".
