Pillar 4: Alumni Engagement

The more the chapter provides consistent engagement opportunities, the more alumni will interact, get acquainted, and get involved with the chapter.

One of the greatest resources of the Fraternity are our alumni members. In order to cultivate interest in alumni volunteering to work with chapters we must communicate ways in which they can engage & stay involved with the Fraternity.
