We have a "5 years out of college" general rule but exceptions may be made. I only approve exceptions in truly extenuating situations, either a past EC officer who demonstrated EXCELLENT leadership skills, especially an ability to rise above chapter drama and make good decisions, or in a geographic region where we have few options. Even when it's an excellent leader, I try to get them placed at a different chapter. The different chapter qualification works here, but the rest doesn't. I wouldn't make an exception in this type of situation. I would encourage involvement in an alumnae chapter and have her help during recruitment to start. I'd also make sure that she knows that, as an advisor, you don't really hang out with the chapter. Once she realizes that advising is mostly about paperwork and business meetings, she may be less motivated.
