Please tell me you're joking. I can't imagine anyone being this rude. If they want to pop in to the hotel and say hi fine...but do you mean to say they come with a date, and demand a meal and favors? Again, I can't even fathom that anyone would be this inconsiderate.
This wasn't directed at you or ADPi specifically, again I was responding to OP as well as anyone else who has this policy.

Thanks for the clarification. And yes, there are people who are that inconsiderate, both alum and collegian. At a formal a few years ago, a very flustered social chair had to write a personal check for several hundred dollars to temporarily cover the overflow of (collegiate and recent alum) attendees who crashed the formal-- these were members hadn't RSVP'd themselves or their dates despite a signup sheet and several weeks worth of announcements. The room wasn't large enough to accomodate the overflow and the hotel was not very interested in doing business again with that group.
