When I came to my city after graduation, I was forced to make friends on my own. I would have done anything for a sisterhood. I really expected more of alum life. I think that the NPHC does better of this. NPHC orgs in my city have events that make the newspaper and social pages.
I am not saying that we should have mixers, but, it would be nice if all of greek life could have more of impact like they that they did the university. Sure, people have kids, etc. But, we still have our bonds.
My alumnae chapter has events for new grads, reduced dues for the first few years after college, and special interest groups. Might you approach your alumnae chapter about creating a SIG?
