Thank you again to Lisa for taking the time to do this! I think something that is really interesting is the different levels of involvement for alumnae; for some, they don’t care to do more than social gatherings while some are more than willing to advise collegiate chapters and devote a good deal of time to their organisation!
Until tomorrow,
The Historian!
