Are seniors encouraged to join the local alumnae chapter upon graduation? Does the alumnae chapter sponsor a senior banquet or tea to welcome seniors to alumnae status? Those things can help. My chapter of initiation has strong ties with its local alum chapter. The alums are matched as alum chums each year with NMs to write letters to them before initiation and buy them a small gift. We actually include chapter alums from across the entire country. The goal is to show them the lifelong commitment that AOIIs have to our organization before they get initiated.
