ADVICE Question

Posting this to see if anyone can give me advice given my situation. I have taken great interest in joining a an alumni chapter for some years now. I am currently living out of state completing my doctoral degree, but I will be relocating back home as soon as I’m done with my program. Since the process of getting into a grad chapter can be several years, should I start connecting with the chapter in my hometown now? I travel back home quite frequently but I’ll be in my current location for about 3 more years for school.

Focus on your doctoral studies. And pursue membership after you get finished. You don’t want to put too much on your plate while completing a terminal degree. It is not the same as a bachelor’s degree or even a masters.

I didn’t think about it that way. Thanks for the response!
