starburst, congratulations on Alum Chair!
It is usually given way down the listings of Officerships. Why? Because so few Actives realize how important a position it really it!
Alums can and will be the life blood of a Chapter. Just stop and think of that for a moment!
Who does the Chapter go to in time of need? Who does the Chapter call if there is a problem? What if you want to get Money to retro a House or build a new one, not the actives as they are not rich or even money comfortable these days.
I as an Alum have been working for 4 years to build up our email and address changes. I am finally getting through to some, LET ME KNOW or you will once again be lost!
Ex: had an Alum call me and said He was not getting updates! Why I asked, well, He changed Emails and did not notify anyone or me! Da!
The most important Officerships to me are:
Tresasure=Money to the Chapter from Actives.
Alum= Live conections
Social=well that says it all
While not an Officer;
House Manager=trying to keep the House Presentable! More so In Fraternitys.
As Alum Chair, you can work your rear off and no one but the Alums will appreciate it more!
