It's also a really really big chunk of change at some schools.

I am actually the same age as this poster (I think? the timeline is confusing) and while I can understand your point if someone were actually miserable, the OP said that the chapter just isn't as good of a fit as she thought it would be. Alumnae experience is obviously very different from collegiate experience, and is not intended to be a substitute for it. But since the OP is stuck in her current chapter, basically the only way she can be part of an alumnae chapter or even any sort of alumnae network, formal or otherwise, is to wait it out- just something to consider if having an alumnae experience is important to her. I personally love meeting Chi O alumnae, and am looking forward to that aspect of membership once I graduate. Just my 2 cents!
