Wow...she's OLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLD.:rolleyes::rolleyes:

How'd ya like that SWTXBelle??

yeah i know! thats why i really dont want to join another one. thats why its so hard to find schools with my sorority that have all the characteristics i want for my school.
i told my mom about that and she was like "does tell them you've never done one before" and i was like "well they ask you during rituals if u've been in one before..lieing would be like almost sending your soul to the devil, b.c thats how serious they take it"

Perhaps this should be in NPC trivia, (except I am asking because I don't know the answer) but does anyone know when NPC passed the unanimous agreement that a woman may not be a member of more than one NPC sorority? Was it in 1902, and the only cases of dual membership would be between the older NPCs and the ones that joined in 1951? (Or people lying of course)

the lady was in a sorority and did just that..turned her pin in and switched. thats why i am guessing that probably the rules have changed.

how do you start a new chapter at the school? maybe i could do that....

There are people older than that on here, and they will tell you, the rules have NOT changed.

Are we on Candid Camera? I mean, really???

Alpha, be careful. I was on the receiving end of a most pleasant and eloquent PM from Lilmissxcutie88 bemoaning my evil post. Apparently she has a learning disability and therefore must be the reason she cannot spell or write using proper grammar.

Just be forewarned...

then i dont know what to tell you....

Please don't.

Also, REE1993 -- just because someone has a learning disability does not give her carte blanche to cop an attitude with people who are trying their best to be patient with her. She's been given great advice and has been steered into the right direction, but apparently that's not good enough for her.

DITY? is the GC equivalent of "is this Candid Camera?"

no no she told me that i'm writing like a 12 yr b/c of my grammar skills and she was making fun of the major that i have chosen Communications.
I got really really really offended by that.
my learning disbalility has nothing to do with the way i'm acting.
i've taken the advice...if i go to a different school that doesnt have my sorority then i think i might try to start one. i just have to figure out how you do that. it just made my more sense to me just to go to one that has mine if you know what i've mean. i've only been in it for a semester so i would like to continue with it.

Are you thinking about starting up a chapter of Tri Sigma or starting a brand new sorority on your own?

Both entail two very different processes and require lots of hard work. It sounds easy, but it isn't.

Maybe you'll listen to me...or maybe you'll go find someone who will give you the answer you want to hear. Either way, I'm going to try to be nice (which is hard) and help you out.

1. You need to PM KSUViolet06. She is a tri sigma alum, a national volunteer and can help you as a sister.

2. The long and short of the matter is, you need to put your education in front of your sisterhood. If that means transferring to a school without a chapter then it's what you have to do. If you need a group of women to belong to at your new school, live in an all-women's dorm, join a knitting group or volunteer for the girl scouts.

3. Sure-you can disaffiliate, but you still can't join another NPC sorority. Maybe your new school has a local sorority that will want you. It's your only choice to become an active sister at a school without Tri Sigma. And there's no guarantee that they'll take you either.

4. A lot of women find that going alum is very rewarding. You can get involved with your local AA and meet more sisters.

5. You've got what, 3 years left of college? If you love Tri Sigma as you claim to, you can still stay a sister and be involved even if you're not active anymore. There are hundreds of other clubs you can get involved with at college. I had just as much fun with my taekwondo club friends as I did with my sisters-more in some cases.

6. The NPC unanimous agreement is not bullshit or 'gay'. Please don't use the word gay to describe something you find stupid. It's offensive, especially to me because my big is actually gay and I love her with all my heart.

Have you considered the University of South California for media studies? :) Also, what about Marist College in NY State? They have your major and a tri sigma chapter.

Um, WoW! How disgraceful that you would consider betraying your organization like that.

Seriously, refer back to your membership manual, ask your VP-Rit if you can see the rit book.....seriously, girl. Remember the vows you took.

MEMBERSHIP IN A SORORITY, FRATERNITY, SERVICE ORG, WHATEVER GREEK ORG IS FOR LIFE. Not until you need to transfer and your org isn't there.

I'm sorry that you think the rule is 'gay'. I pitty the org that took you.

I don't know if you're at JMU now, but there's a Sigma chapter there. There are also some wonderful schools in NC with Sigma chapters. All have communications programs.
