When you are part of an organization that is struggling for whatever reasons, it seems to me that you can try to fix the group from within or you can leave the group.
To lie to the group and circumvent its policies because you feel it's flawed and return to it later as if you hadn't manipulated and abandoned it for those years, well, in my mind that doesn't play that well.
Playing alum didn't make the chapter better and I suspect it didn't live up to the values of the group. Pointing out the un-sisterly behavior of other member of the chapter doesn't make Skiing sister or the group look better. As a matter of fact. . .

Hence my lack of approving of what she did. This, to me, is the difficulty in promoting both a college organization as well as an alumna one. Just because the college system is not working out doesn't mean you don't still hold to the values of the organization and want to serve it.
Lying about it is not good, but I've watched girls who wanted early alumna status for very valid reasons not be able to get it. While I don't think it should be easy to withdraw from a collegiate chapter and remain a member of the GLO, I think there should be more freedom to do so.
