The rules are going to vary from group to group. Some may take you, while others will stay away since you'd have a history of jumping ship.

There was a lot of good advice given to you in your first thread as well.

Ditto what OTW said.


What's up with all the "I made a bad decision" threads recently?

"I made a bad decision" threads usually pop up right around now. It's over a month into the semester and rush ended not too long ago or just ended. It happens right around September/October as well. :)

do you guys know of any people that have left local sororities, and joined other ones?
It doesn't matter if we know anyone. IT DEPENDS ON THE GROUP YOU'RE TRYING TO JOIN.

(see, I can type in caps, too)

Yes.

Now go talk to some real life people to see if the particular NPC or NPHC chapters of interest are receptive to that. :)

You don't have to scream.

I left my local and joined my NPC. However, I was not initiated into the local.

It doesn't matter if we know people who left local sororities and joined other ones. What you can't seem to understand is that people's experiences are DIFFERENT. Membership policies VARY from one organization to another. We don't know the rules of your current organization. We don't know the rules of the other groups on campus you're considering.

Get out of your self pity already. Now that you know you've made a mistake, what are you going to do about it? Cry "poor me" online? What good will that do for you?

knight_shadow 02-19-2009 09:34 PM
CAPS = SCREAMING

just for future reference

Good luck.

Getting you anywhere? Where did you want to go?

You asked for help and a lot of people helped you. They said the same things over and over again: Rules vary. It depends on the group. Check with your local. We can't tell you for sure. How can you say that we have not helped you?

Did you want us to tell you "OMG! YES! You SOOOOOO can join another sorority! Like, leave your local right now!!!"? Would that have made you feel better? You know what? We can't say that. We don't know you. We don't know your local.

That's too bad that you feel that we haven't helped you enough. Shame on us.

im not saying that you're not helping, but just asking over and over on here isnt going to get me anywhere...thats why i said that i will let u guys know once i finally get out of the sorority. i wasnt complaining at all. sorry if u took it that way.

Omega Mu are always open for members.

Jennamarie,

GC is not the place to discuss your personal decisions about changing your sorority to another one.

This issue has been discussed ad nauseum. People kindly have giving the links to them. You need to read and re-read them.

I am sorry you made a choice and decided on a lifetime commitment to your said sorority. You have to live with your choices. That is life.

All I am telling you, do not select Alpha Kappa Alpha Sorority, Inc. for your second choice... We do not need anyone like you making choices then regretting them...

idk. this is a greek website...i thought i would find a better way of understanding the process on here. like the steps to terminating with your old sorority....etc. do i have to write a letter or what? like, they cant FORCE me to stay....but i know that its probably not something where i just say "Hi, I dont want to be in the sorority anymore. Bye", i would think....lol

Uhh...that =/= validation, but I digress...

Why would you come to us when you need help with your sorority? Read your bylaws and constitution. Talk to alumnae members.

I'm subjecting myself to Larry Fishburne's CSI right now. I like Larry but miss the other guy.

I only watch CSI: Miami on A&E. I had no idea the other guy left.

It's on my TV but I'm just too tired to change the channel.

By the way, you are choosing to engage me.
