sorority
 
I went to a small school in boca raton florida called lynn university and there was phi mu so i was initiated and then the chapter was cancelled and then i transfered to a school that didnt have greek life and then i think i am going to transfer to one that does do i still have to be in phi Mu?

ummm.
1) FIU still has Phi Mu, they weren't "cancelled."
2) If your campus has Phi Mu and you chose to participate in Greek life, yes, you would have to be in Phi Mu. It would be up to that chapter whether or not they would affiliate you, though. Unless you resign, you will be a Phi Mu. And even if you do resign, you will not be able to join another NPC sorority.

^^Not FIU, I did a little searching I think I figured out the school

Just to be clear, if he campus does NOT have Phi Mu, she can not participate in Greek life.

Oh! Good call.

If my guess is correct, it appears as though the Phi Mu colony at this school was never chartered (found a few posts about it here on GC). Phi Mus, do you guys initiate before a chapter is installed? If not, then OP is not a member...?

sorority
 
so i would i have to be in phi mu. what would be some of the reasons to why they maybe wouldn't affiliate you into their chapter

soxman13 09-08-2011 11:34 PM

QFP.

Oy, my head hurts, someone take over.

ETA: Since the OP edited her original post to include the name of the school, I guess this is safe to post now: http://www.greekchat.com/gcforums/sh...=105222&page=4

They're talking about Lynn at the top of the page. A member confirms that the colony was never chartered.

I guess I should let Phi Mus take over and handle the questions from here :)

I would suggest that you contact Phi Mu Headquarters and inquire as to your
membership status. If the colony was never installed, there's a good chance that
you were never initiated. If you were never initiated, then you are free to participate in recruitment and pledge another NPC chapter.

I've never heard of an NPC "giving" anyone badges. Pledge/new member pins yes, badges no.

soxman13 09-08-2011 11:46 PM

i meant to say pins

soxman13 09-08-2011 11:46 PM

do you think 23 is too old

DeltaBetaBaby 09-08-2011 11:53 PM

She says she was initiated and has a badge. That seems strange, but I don't know what happened at Lynn.

soxman13 09-08-2011 11:58 PM

im going to call the phi mu headquarters and talk to them about it. do any of you think twenty three is too old

WaterChild 09-09-2011 12:01 AM

That all depends on whether or not you want to spend a lot of time with a bunch of 18 year old freshmen.
