For they tried to rush our sorority and we wouldn't take them in the fall. Do certain nationals waive their required GPA? This sorority had to have 10 women by the end of the semester to stay a chapter, and they only have 7, including women that don't have the GPA...this could be why they rushed them to have the 10. They had 3 girls during the year depledge over the two semesters....that might be how they have their 10 by keeping the women on their roster...but i was just curious. There doesn't seem to be anything we can do about these rush infractions. We bid some girls in the spring who accepted, participated in greek week, and were coming to formal, but then this sorority went to them and told these women they automatically owed us 75 dollars for signing our bid agreement....it's making the system very unattractive.
If the other sorority is an NPC group, you should have a campus Panhellenic. It is the duty of the group who was on campus first to initiate the process to form the panhellenic. If they don't do so - after they are reminded of it - the other group should.

Do you mean some of the women do not have the school required GPA, or the national required? Because their minimum may be different than your minimum. If they're breaking a school rule it's up to the school to enforce it. Same if they're breaking a sorority rule, it's up to their nationals to check up on it.

With the 10 women thing, again, is this something the school instituted or something their nationals said? Again, it's up to the school/national to enforce the rules they make.
