Robin,

Ten years is definately a long time. First, you might want to check in your activation book and get everyone's names. Then go to the alumni association at your university and ask to access their database. Lots of last names will have changed, but if your alumni haven't kept in touch with your chapter, they may not have updated their alumni info either. You will probably have to just get everyone's last known address and the last know address of their parents. You might have to talk to the registrar to get the latter. Then start calling, mailing, emailing, etc. Post missing sisters on the internet and ask older professors in your department if they know what might have happened to any of them. Hardly a week goes by that I don't hear from a former student just saying "HI!"

Once you find some alumni, you might have a themed weekend to invite them back...maybe something other than just Founders' Day...how about something like "Rebuilding our Past" or something with a "Past, Present, and Future" theme? Let them know you want to honor them, learn from them, impress them, get to know them, and above all THANK them for what they gave you.

Good luck!
