I have read your brookline stories, and not to sound like a dumb bumpkin but it took me reading your other posts on here to realize that the sorority wasnt real. I hear of so many sororities on here that I have never heard of, mostly due to the fact that I dont know much about the northern greek system. Here is my 2.5 cents, ritual in itself in 99% of all instances is a secret cermony, left as a mystery to those who have not seen it. Your description can be broad, and at the same time retain its secrecy, if that makes any sense. Or you can spill the beans and make it dignified and glorious, giving you one heck of a story. I guess seeing my intiation and being a Master Mason I dont guess I could concieve coming up with a fictional ritual, I would be to afraid I would keep reverting back to all the diffrent degrees I have seen. Who knows.
BTW- Any chance that your fictional sorority could actually be some kind of service sorority at some school? I dont know much about service sororities, but I think that many of them only exist on the campus they were founded at. Here at Eastern we have Kappa Delta Tau, and I dont think they exist anywhere in the world. It would be cool if you devise a ritual then somewhere down the road a service sorority with your letters finds it and actually uses it create their own ritual. I'm rambling
