This point is so well taken being the longest and oldest Alum of My Chapter!
Many Alums because of burn out, Graduatets, family, kids, job or what ever, drift apart from the Chapter or the Org..
We all say it is not for 4/5 years but life.
We all have Bro/Sis that are scattered to all corners of the world.
Now, what is the solution?
Active Chapter keep Alums updated, a lot dont.
Alums start building a base to keep the Alums informed.
Alums start working with the Active Chapter.
As some of us get older, we remember what was there and the Friendships that we had and can still have.
Through GreekChat, I have found more Brothers that I did not know that I had or have never met! This also goes for members of Many Other Greek Orgs. Ones that I have become Friends with and hope some day to meet!
While I have talked via Ma Bell, I have only met a few. Hopefully Kitso and I can hook up this weekend! LXA/SN!
I have done the same thing but, remeber the Toms, Jans, Bobs, Leslies, and all of the others that your pledges with and went through out those 4/5 years werre Your Best Friends.
What ever happened to them! Are They wondering the same thing about you!
Time for Tom ta shut up!t
