The college has to earn those warm feelings and the returns from alumni. They're not inherent in the system, they're not automatically part of the educator-student relationship.
Saint Peter's College fails at that on nearly every level. The student experience is bad. Very little is done to foster a sense of community. One of the best ways to do this is to run a successful athletic program. Winning athletic teams reflect positively on the school and encourage an overall sense of pride among the staff and students. Athletics is not he only place Saint Peter's College is deficient in this matter. It's nearly across the board.
The customer service at Saint Peter's seems to end as soon as the checks are signed. This has nothing to do with an entitlement culture or today's generation. Students at other schools, across the education spectrum, are getting a rewarding college-going experience that fosters loyalty and pride for years after they graduate. SPC does not.
