I'm sorry you received such a rude reception here at Greek Chat.
I looked up ESA on the internet, http://www.esaintl.com/
and it seems to be a very reputable service organization with a track record of more than 60 years.
I like the fact that it not only helps out a very worthwhile philanthopy (wow-- you guys raised $9 million dollars in 2004-2005 for St. Judes Children's Hospital-- that's wonderful!), http://www.stjude.org/esa/0,2624,590_3184_5111,00.html but it also offers its members leadership training as well as a venue for networking. It's so important that women help each other in the business world just as men have been doing for years.
I also note that you count Martha Pullen, of the PBS series, "Martha's Sewing Room" among your newest members. Congratulations!
I wish you lots of luck with your new chapter. I have heard of other organizations reaching out through on-line meetings. It seems to be the wave of the 21st century-- a way of uniting people who might otherwise not be able to get together because of geographical restrictions.

Just to piggyback, I believe Beta Sigma Phi has online chapters as well, so an online chapter isn't something totally foreign.
Good luck KRHill91
