I'm the Collegiate-Alumnae Liaison for my chapter and I was thinking about holding a luncheon with our Alum chapter so all the girls can network and get to know the Alumnae chapter members... but recently we had an event that included dinner and I was a little worried by some of the table manners I saw. (Napkins for example are usually better than licking your fingers clean at the table.) I don't want to give up on my event idea, but at the same time I have NO CLUE how to broach the subject gently and politely so that we don't end up looking like really poor representatives for the sorority.
So: Has anyone else ever had this kind of problem? Does anyone have suggestions for how to politely try to remind people of certain points of etiquette? The only thing I can think of is to arrange a "business etiquette" seminar and make sure it covers table manners.... I'd love any ideas/help here....
