Ritual Advisor
They asked me to take on the position (although I expressed interest in helping out in any area) and with ASA there is an application process where we both fill out proper paperwork and the chapter sends it in. The letter is just a formality I guess, to state that I am "official."
I am trying to figure out my role with them, and I guess that is why I am sad that they are not reciprocating with me. I am ready to jump right in and offer assistance! I really hope after the winter break they are enthusiastic about me coming on to advise. I am glad to hear that I am not the only one who has dealt with this (although not really glad to hear it happens!)

Ritual advisor is a limited position. At most, I could see you helping out with Preference, whatever new member ceremony ASA has, and then Initiation. I suppose Founders' Day or other special days you have could fall under that hat as well, but it is not like you are the chapter advisor where you will be at their weekly meetings, chaperoning socials, in constant contact with a lot of members.
I would send the chapter a nice email or card wishing them good luck on their exams, and then next semester ask that the ritual chair contact you to make your master plan for the semester - you could arrange to have the catsuits cleaned, see if anything needs to be ordered, plan out dates for the ceremonies so you can make sure you're available, etc.
