Being a part of an international professional organization was my 1st appealing quality. My Epsilon Omega Chapter Sisters sustained my desire to excell as a musician with warm support and dazzling talents which gave clarity to the high standards we seek as SAIs. I continue being active as an Alumnus, desiring to pass on to the next generation of Sisters, that same focus on excellence, mutual support and the perpetuation of music making into the future! —Yvonne Walker, KC Alumnae Chapter

As a music major who ended up with a career in the biological sciences, the alum group kept me involved in music and created a wonderful support group that I have treasured for many, many years.  The women of SAI have been inspiring and caring sisters.

I went directly into an Alumnae group after graduating and have been a member for 50 plus years.  SAI has been such a huge part of my life, performing, connections, fellowship,  It has meant so much in all these ways.  I have been to many National Conventions and  met up with sisters from my initiating chapter .  That was fun.  When I was a newly wed and in a different school, it was an alum who helped me get a singing job.  Elaine Minden KC

I had a gap of over 20 years between graduation and joining the alum chapter.  I had no idea what I was missing out on:  friendship, networking, and performing opportunities.  SAIs have become some of my best friends!  Jane Christison, President, Kansas City Alumnae Chapter

I love being able to connect with a new type of sisterhood. Alumnae life is much more laid back than collegiate life, and the relationships you have in the chapter are going to be much different than they were in college, but different is not a bad thing and I really treasure being able to connect with the older members and pick their brains on life experience!

Advice for graduating seniors, write thank you notes after you have a job interview! It seems strange at first, but write up a little note as soon as you leave the interview. It shows that you care about the job and you are serious about moving forward.

My alumnae membership has been a joy in my life. What wonderful sisters I have met through the years. Our musical friendships have continued. I urge you to find an alumnae chapter.

What I love about being an alum member is it lets me keep music in my life even though I do not have a music-related profession.

I would encourage graduating seniors to join sooner versus later. I waited 9 years(!!) before I joined the alum chapter and I feel like I missed out on so much. These ladies have rekindled my love for SAI in ways I did not think was possible!

My advice for graduating seniors who aren't music majors is to find a way to keep music in your life. It took me a long time to return to music, and I hadn't realized how much of a hole was in my life without it. I also recommend joining an alum chapter right away. It's a fantastic way to connect!
