Unless the alums are coming in from the bar of course.
Seriously - if you are having problems with the way the collegians are treating you or feel they are being disrespectful, SPEAK UP and criticize constructively. The lack of mail could be due to lack of funds, and the unpreparedness for an alum event could be due to a lack of chapter communication that needs to be addressed.
But the collegians won't know anything is wrong unless they're told that no, just because this is the way it's always been doesn't mean that's the way it will always be. We had crappy alum relations when I was a collegian - my senior class changed that by coming back not just to have fun but also offering help and criticism when needed. It's a two way street. It changed the way actives felt about alums, and I am as close with some sisters I met as an alum as I am sisters I actually was in school with.
