Re: What Do You Think?
 

Did the national org have any contact with this group - i.e. were they an official colony that was closed - or were they thinking about going to the national and then changed their mind and decided to call themselves TKE or AGD or whatever anyway?

skepi?? :p

OK, was away for the weekend....

The group was a REGISTERED interest group that decided they didn't want to follow protocol to proceed to the colony level. Then proceeded to steal bits and pieces of the National org's information (the information that is readily available to the public) and use it.

A combination of Greek letters CAN be trademarked by the way.

Sounds like to big for their Panty Hose!:(

We helped a Soro get started on Campus and had a chance to affiliate with Phi Mu. Oh no, they were to big to do that, guess who is gone, Da!

Look for the same thing to happen if up against National Groups.

tres not cool.

I would make sure that the national group knows and that some sort of notice is put out by the school that this group is not affiliated with XYZ National, regardless of the fact that they are using XYZ letters and info.

So why don't you do something about it?

I'm sure it will have changed your life greatly once you do it and those kids that could have gotten a little tutoring in the time it took to deal with this situation will understand why it bothered you too.

This is a horrible story and, if this happened to your org., you should sue.
