I recently attended a rush event for my chapter and was the oldest alumna there. I could tell a couple of the younger PNM's were a bit confused as to who I was, so I went directly to them to chat. They don't see me every other day like they do the active sisters, after all.
One of them asked when I graduated from BU. I told her '97, and she exclaimed "I wasn't even in junior high then!" and then quickly blushed.
We had a good laugh.
I think one of the worst things an alum can do is put on an arrogant attitude *because* (s)he is an alum. Remember that they are younger and are in college. They're simply not going to be reacting the way we as out-of-college adults would think to act.
If there is a serious problem with behavior, though, I'd recommend quietly speaking to that member alone or going to the president and having a quiet word.
