i have heard that attitude before. some people say that they are so burned out from being in a glo from college that they want nothing to do with an alum chapter. there are others who think that being involved is going to require the same time committment as it does to be a collegiate. i am really happy to be a member of an alum chapter. i like to stay involved because i moved far away from my friends and family...and my alum chapter helped me to meet new people. with my crazy work schedule and my occasional attendance at events, i still felt a part of the group. now i have more time...and they actually see me at events regularly! the things we do are just plain fun. yes, there are some business type things, but it is no big deal.
i guess it depends on the glo tho. i remember at a meeting i went to recently (i want to say it was ast, but i could be wrong), they said they were required to have 7 business meetings per year to remain an alum chapter.
