No, totally makes sense
As for the advising situation, I actually sent a letter to the PD, explaining the situation with the chapter (because being that she lives in a different city she really wasn't aware of what happened). I explained that I do have experience with other things I did in college and that I would be more than willing to "shadow" an advisor so that I could gain the skills. Yeah, she never responded.
I don't want to disrespect my PD's but the last two we have had seriously "don't do their job". I mean in my eyes if a collegian or an alumnae is emailing, calling, writing to you, you should reply. This is seriously the biggest frustration myself and other alums have. We all want to become more involved, possibly be advisors but getting a hold of our PD is a nightmare. I hate to say this but really start "losing faith in the system". Even my DTD is impossible to get a hold of (emails and leaving messages don't work).
AHHHHHH. Brianna is ready to pull her hair out.
