How to interpret this?

I recently went through a superday (8-9rounds in a row) after having an informal interview w/ an alumn. However, it has been almost a week after the superday (for a full time position) and I still haven't heard back. The worse thing is, when I inquired the progress of their hiring decision, my Alumn (ED at the team), who had been very helpful/responsive previously and gave me very positive feedback on the superday, now does not reply my email. Honestly, I feel that I did very well at the superday and at least half of the interviewers expressed very good impression of me, and I was confirmed by the alumn's feedback at the end. How should I interpret what is happening now? Thanks.

Also just a more positive thought, it is the 4th of July week. A lot of people from my office are out this week, so maybe he/she's on vacation or something?

I didn't think about that. Maybe they just need more time. It won't hurt if OP just calls HR.

thank you guys for these very quick response! Yes, I was also thinking that they might have put me on the wait list and wanted to check w/ other people. Unfortunately, the ED Alumn is the only contact person previously. The interview invitation was also from him given this is an off-cycle opportunity. That said, I do collected a few name cards from the interviewers during the superday. Do you think I should approach other interviewers since my alumn is not responding? A downside here I've been concerned about is that it is a very small team with flat hierarchy, so I might appear to be too aggressive and impatient. And I don't know if that will help either since decision could have been made long ago.

Also, another question is how long after the interview, if I still do not hear back, is considered a ding?

Thanks again. It has been very painful waiting after a superday, especially they kind of raised your expectation...
