I'm officially an alum and it kinda sucks. I feel like a senior citizen. I have to call b4 I show up to events and other alumi seem to just fall off the face of the earth b/c they are so caught up with their lives. and I want to join an alumi association, but I don't think that It will be the same... I just don't know what to do. I don't want to fall out of touch with my chapter ( if i can still call it that). I know my Chpter sisters would never tell me that I'm not wanted but, i somehow feel like i don't belong anymore... I'm tryin to find my niche but I don't know where to look..Somebody help...

Hey KC,

My suggestion is to get involved with an Alumnae Chapter in your area. If there isn't one that is too close by then do like we're doing here in Los Angeles. We have started the Southern Los Angeles County Alumnae Group and have just petitioned for an Alumnae Chapter charter.

Also, I know sometimes it sucks being the one to do have to do this but call those fellow alum who are caught up in their lives and try to schedule a get together. They will probably appreciate that someone is going that. I know for myself and PhiSigScooby the past year has been tough because of working on our thesis and life in general getting in the way. We'd both say we need to call such and such but get so busy we'd forget. Luckily for us they would call us and say hey "we miss you, let's get together" and we would jump at the chance to see everyone. So you definitely make the call and see if you can get everyone together soon.

Hope this helps you some,

Carolyn
