Ditto on what Alphafrog said, however SK does prohibit drinking in your letters.

I thought they used locals, but honestly I could not tell you it has been so long ago. But in the case of nationals, I know that is the rule.

Not all NPCs have that rule. ASA has a rule that could be interpreted to mean no drinking in letters, depending on how closely you want to read into it, but it's not spesifically stated. I also believe Theta does not have a rule about drinking in letters.

I think that may be Theta Phi Alpha, not Kappa Alpha Theta.

OK let me rephrase....A lot of nationals have this rule, I know personally from friends that Alpha Xi Delta does not allow members to drink in their letters. I just assumed that most had this rule.

Unless it is written in your bylaws...and you've seen it with your own eyes...there are no national rules about drinking in letters.

Back to the topic of the thread.

Thank you!

Woah that exploded! I was hoping to keep the sorority names under wraps until rush was over and I goofed. :(

I didn't get an invite back to your fine sorority, though I've often stopped to admire the house! :o

It's ok. I can tell you as a Sigma Kappa that I'm not offended by your words, but by the member's actions. I wish you luck.

As for the no drinking rule, while I do not know if it is a national rule or not... it has been drilled into me on the chapter level.

i thought it was something like DZO..i think it was delta xi omega..does anyone else remember?

That was Season 2 :D


lol, well I'm an alumna, but I haven't gone to any meetings yet. I get to help with recruitment this weekend though! I'm excited :p

There were several seasons:

First Season: Sigma Alpha Epsilon Pi
Second Season: Delta Xi Omega
Third Season: Zeta Sigma Phi

I think that when most chapters refer to "not drinking" in letters, they are referring to the "drunk to you can't walk" kind of drinking, the kind of drinking that can get you into my office or before a judge, not just a glass of wine with dinner. But that is my interpret on it. I think that if you are an alumnae and out to dinner with friends and you have your beautiful badge on then having a tasteful drink is okay.

As to SL... loved watching the train wreck... whatever happened with those chapters?


Symbal's good luck... finances are important to the chapter but that was just rude. I hope that word gets back to the chapter and they can have a chat about rude behaviors. If that had been my chapter or my group, you can bet that I would be on the phone to sisters who could address this issue with the chapter.

:) No worries.
