We're talking a 50 year old chapter....to expect every member to be involved with the chapter is unrealistic. When you're not talking about schools with houses that necessitate house corps, often the way alums look at things is "no news is good news."

It's up to you to keep your address current with hq (thus enabling thrm to send the donation requests)....but if you do that, yes, you are owed the courtesy of a form letter if the chapter that brought you into the organization is closed. To say that the only alums who "deserve" to find out are those in close contact with the chapter is along the same lines as the weighted legacy debate (i.e. a rushee whose mom is an active volunteer is on a higher tier than a rushee with a mom who for whatever reason didn't get as heavily involved).
