I think that's kind of a narrow view to take. We recently had a reunion at Atlantic City - approximately 25 sisters attended. We had a very large age range, and the youngest girl there had only physically met 2 of the other sisters that were attending. After the first evening, it didn't matter a bit. We may have been there at different times, but we all went through similar experiences at the same campus. It's not just about reminiscing, it's about making new memories and becoming close to new people as well. If all alumnae get togethers serve as is "remember when" fests, it will help the chapter very little. There are alums out there who don't want to meet new people - forget them. They contribute nothing.
