I agree, SisterFriend ZetaAce!!

In Need, I would also like to offer that if this member has this type of personality, then her sorors know this and would give appropriate weight to her opinion. She may have fooled them at first (in order to be accepted for membership) but they are probably onto her game.

Please take the proferred advice and meet other chapter members. As we all know, each org is bigger than any one member or any particular chapter. You must pursue the org that is right for you! If you must pursue grad/alumnae in order to achieve your goal, then do it!

You say that you don't know any other members in the chapter. Why? Have you been to any of their programs/events? Have you introduced yourself to any of them?

You say she's 'blackballed' you, but who's to say what will happen unless you try? If you don't make it, dust yourself off and try again. If you don't make it during your undergrad years, then you can always try grad chapter.

BTW, must we continue to stress that protocol is different for NPHC and NIC/IFC orgs? I see you express your ignorance and ask for correction, but you have read this board long enough to KNOW the difference (or at least, to defer to those who do!).

OK, I'm not an expert, but given what I know, this is what I would do. I would look very very closely into another org. If the group that you were originally interested in accepts girls like that, I would have serious doubts about them. So look very hard into other groups and see if you maybe DO feel something that you didn't at first recognize. If you still decide to persue membership in this one particular org, then go through rush. You may or may not get in, but you'll never know if you find out. That is a really tough situation, and I hope everything works out for the best. Anyone in a BGLO correct me if anything I said was wrong or against protocol or anything. Anyway - that is my take on things.
