These are only options they don't have to do anything. If they truly want to get involved in such an organization so be it. But if I wasn't going to start a chapter or get involved with my own organization somehow during my senior year, I sure would put my time to some important personal things pertaining to graduation or my future rather than some half ass social organization. Just my opinion.
Why is it any more "half ass" than being in an alum chapter?

Not all colleges are anywhere near large cities, and alum groups of every GLO are not in every large city. If an ASA alum transferred to Washington State there'd be nothing there for her - we've never had a chapter there or anywhere near it.

and yeah, maybe orgs WANT to charter at large schools, but I want to marry Ewan McGregor, and that isn't happening either. You can want to do it and work for it 24/7 and have your whole national org behind you and it STILL might not be feasible.
