Since the term alumnus refers to the school rather than the fraternity, and is defined as "a male graduate or former student of a school, college, or university", anyone staying in school longer than four years in order to graduate would not be an alumnus hanging out with the actives. He would still BE an active. In other words, you don't become an alumnus until you graduate or otherwise leave school.
I have no opinion one way or another, just making a technical point.
