Rich,
Since you are an active Alumni I will ask you this. Do you agree with the decision of requiring PACs and PGs to contribute to the SEF? What is your opinion about members who would rather just donate to the National Fraternity instead of the SEF regardless of any Tax Break?
Regards,

Currently there are 10 alumni associations in the U.S. The reason we don't have as many as say Sigma Alpha Iota is that not until the past 10 years has Sinfonia focused itself on keeping the alumni brothers in the fold, and giving them opportunities to stay active (besides hanging out at their old chapter). Before the mid-90's any attempt to establish or maintain alumni chapters fizzled; now we have 10 healthy alumni association and more to come! An important factor in this has been the change in the philosophy of our leaders (change in purposes, etc...), the support of a dedicated alumni staff member @ Lyrecrest, Dan Krueger, but also the mission change of the Sinfonia Educational Foundation. Plus the strategic plan of the fraternity...an absolutely amazing document - take a read!
(Its on Sinfonia.org)
Hope this makes sense!
Fraternally,
Rich Legon
President, NYC Alumni Association
