Phi Mu alumnae ARE allowed to participate in many collegiate functions, including attending meetings as advisers, assisting with Recruitment, etc.

What LyonLuv was referring to is the separation of collegiate and alumnae members when it comes to social functions where alcohol is served. Alumnae members are not invited to our formals or other social events unless the function is dry. I do not know the exact reasoning behind this, but it is a strict national policy that is followed by my own chapter. Even sisters who have "temporarily" gone alum, like those who are under full time hours, are not permitted to attend social functions even as the "date" of a collegiate sister.

But it is incorrect to say that alumnae are not allowed to participate in anything collegiate-related. We welcome the active participation of alumnae with collegiate chapters.
