I have tried to be active with the chapter since taking alum status. Last year for FFr, I had a fairly warm welcome. This year was a little different. The older members who know me were excited... but the newer ones didn't care and for the most part acted like I was in the way. It got better by Bid day (as they warmed a little).
The advisor problem is that at the begining it takes some time to warm them up to you. If you don't make that connection, then it is harder. I hope that the evening at my house will allow them to get to know me a little better and allow me to find out things about them that I would have never known.
The problem is that most alum don't like the initial alienation! I want them to do well and suceed. Otherwise I wouldn't have come.
However, I don't want to be contacted only when they want money. That is wrong... even though I am more willing to now than I was as an active (duh, I have money)
