New members absolutely positively are NOT mis-lead in any way that they are joining a nat'l group. Everyone is made sure to understand exactly what we are, and what we arent. New members learn everything about the history of this particular organizion pre-national and post. INCLUDING how and why the group became a local. Concerning history members learn only about the particular chapters history, NOT the old nat'l fraternities as it is irrelevant to us now.

Praecellemus,
Not trying to get you into hot water by asking, but what about your fraternity's ritual? Is it the same as/related to/derived from the nat'l fraternity from which you split or did you come up with something new? PM me if you'd prefer.
