No, but I expect to be offered the opportunity for input every so often, even once a year or so. Most of the web companies I've done business with give me that opportunity. My U.S. representative sends a survey once in a while. My hospital just sent me a 30 question survey asking me how they could improve their services. I don't think its very expensive to send web surveys, especially if you have it on your own website.

If you asked me to support a non-profit in my community, I'd want to know how they make decisions and if they have public board meetings that I could attend, and how they allow their contributors to participate.

I guess I feel that if I don't agree with my national's executives' agenda, or if I don't understand their approach because they don't communicate very well about it, my only choice is to not participate/contribute, because they're not encouraging me to share my opinions.

Then I would be another statistic of the alumni who "don't care" and the statistic of alumni attrition would go up another percent.

Then they would wonder why their alumni attrition is so high. And I and other people could tell them why, except they've never asked us why.
