I am writting to get the advice of all you brilliant Alum out there. Our chapters Alumni relations have a strange history. This could be a long story but I am going to do my best to keep it simple......
-about 5 years ago we had poor alum relations
-most of our advicers resigned and come to find out now where bitter about things
-we have been steadily working on improving things. We had a big 150 party in their honor. (not many made it dur to a horrible snow storm but they all got the invite)
-we sent out a letter anoucing homecoming and formal recruitment last year
-we recentely sent a very detailed newsletter.
-only 2-3 of them contact us or donate things.....and we always thank them and award them.....
So, we final have a new advicer now but she seems to be caring a lot of the past resentment. It is hard to adjust because we have not had a real advicer for over two years. She asked us what we wanted from her and we asked for her helping getting Alumni to come to formal recruitment (we need help due to a big turn over numberwise). She confess that basically they are all mad at us....
Still??? we are not even the ones that mad them mad. Anyways, I just need to know what we can do to make it up to these women. We really want and need there support
Any advice.........
Thanks,
Rachael
