As a collegiate, I can remember being told over and over that being a DG mean a lifetime, not just 4 years. We actually had very few alums that worked with us....mostly because there just weren't that many in town.

Agreed - our collegiate chapter had no one, I think I remember seeing one adviser. Now I advise my old chapter from 8 states away - because there are so few local alums in the area - plus another local chapter where I live! We try to impress upon everyone that it's for life, and have been semi successful at picking up new grads.
