Yes...I have to agree that respect (especially to younger alumnae) needs to happen....also to alums that graduated from your own chapter...
We've been having a problem where the alums who graduated from their chapter are having the hardest time with the chapter giving them respect. It's like they haven't made the transition to realizing that 1-2-3 years ago this woman was our active sister and now she's not...yet they treat her with so much disrespect...
Also, the active house forgets that as alums we have separate lives outside the chapter...I work 2 jobs, have a husband and a mortgage to pay...so the active house will sometomes request impossible last-minute requests that their alum chapter doesn't have the time to coordinate themselves...
Now if they gave us 3 weeks...that would be more do-able....
