And within sorority Alum chapters, you constantly have fluctuating membership. People show up or not all the time. There's not some special OMG I HAVE TO GO BECAUSE I'M A MEMBER FOR LIFE thing that keeps Alum chapters running.

I am not under the impression, nor have ever been told, that ritual was done on a regular basis, especially at the AA level.
However, I disagree with Penguin that this isn't what bonds them. Yes the people are important and the work that is involved is important, but to say ritual isn't a bonding process, a commitment, and a vow to that organization for life is the same thing as dismissing the importance of it.
And I have never, ever seen a sorority woman say or write that it wasn't something very dear and precious to them.
