i have no problem with standing out of respect for alums.
my only problem was i was confused because i thought that it had been deemed hazing, and also annoyed because in this situation it was awkward and done multiple times. especially since our advisors have said that we shouldn't do it for the advisors since we see them all the time.

When dealing with alumnae, if one of them tells you not to stand, or tells you to call her by her first name, then that supercedes any hard & fast rule.
My point was that, as long as the alumna is made to feel comfortable, all's well with the world! So many times, I've visited the (blank) chapter, climbed the stairs if the elevator's broken, and no one has offered me a seat, a drink, or even acknowledged my existance! That does NOT make an alum feel like volunteering her time very often!
