What do alumni do?

[AlwaysSAI]

In SAI and Phi Sig, recent alumnae are handled a little differently.

SAI: All soon-to-be-graduates are advised to join the Alumnae Association before graduation which ensures that the alumna continues to receive Tempo! & Pan Pipes. It also connects the alumna with information on near by alumnae chapters and/or sisters. Membership in the alumnae association is beneficial for all sisters, but especially for sisters that have taken a break from SAI involvement after graduation. They will still receive the newsletter and magazine and are also added to the International Listserv which keeps them connected to the needs and goings-on of the fraternity.

Phi Sig: Alumni members in Phi Sig are encouraged to immediately become involved regionally. Recent graduates always serve as regional consultants to collegiate chapters because they are not that removed from the collegiate experience. Regional Consultants cycle every year to maximize the amount of alumni involvement. We also have a newly developed (2003) National Alumni Association which provides national networking, scholarship opportunities, continuing receipt of the fraternity magazines, membership in the alumni listserv, and other resources for alumni. There are also a number of alumni chapters and associations in various parts of the country. (Although, Phi Sig's alumni membership isn't nearly as well developed as SAI's. 6 associations & only 3 chapters.) Every year, separately from National Convention, there is also an Alumni Convention which is another way for the fraternity to reconnect with alumni.
