Outside of the greek world, most people don't know the correct usage. Hell, many greeks don't know it either. While the copy editors should have spotted it, it's not a suprise that it went by without notice.

When I write it I usually use the correct conjugation, but when I speak there's so many times that I say alumni without even realizing it. It's not a big deal though, it's not like it's derrogatory.
