Why are you NOT involved in an Alumni/ae Association?

Most alumnae/alumni/graduate chapters are much more than ways to socialize with your friends. I know that some alum chapters only get together to hang out but people can change that if they want their alum chapters to actually do something significant.

Well, my point is that the local chapter isn't offering those things, so it doesn't appeal to me much.

Do you and your buddies offer those things? Is the alum chapter receptive to offering those things (are you sure they don't offer those things?)? Have you all tried to join and see what happens?

The local alum chapter is most likely offering the things that the chapter members want. They won't offer things that nonmembers want.
