Maybe my experience is not the norm, but from what I have seen, most alumnae chapters do not interact with the collegiate chapters on a regular basis. Yes, alumnae chapters may send some volunteers to help with recruitment and they might have an annual event with area collegiate chapters, but its not like they are there holding the hands and giving weekly support to the collegiate members.

As an adviser, yes, there is the opportunity to be involved more frequently, but even then you have to be careful about how involved you get because its not your chapter to run.

Not exactly.

The majority of our seniors leave campus/state after graduation mostly because jobs are hard to find here. It's very rare that one, let alone two, will stick around and join the alum chapter.

We get a lot of alums from other chapters who've since relocated here as well.
