Our chapters belong to a General Fraternity, of which we govern ourselves (undergrad vote). The GF would not steer a chapter in the wrong direction. Many chapters that are already going the wrong direction, feel GF is being a 'Dictator' when they come in and try to fix things.
Tradition for the sake of tradition, is one of the lamest excuses I have heard. If a chapter has a 'tradition' that could cause harm/injury/humility to a pledge or another person, then it should be addressed at a higher level (IE, alumn/advisors/GF rep/Univ. rep). It's like the Shep test = lame. (IMO)
Anyway, GF is not our enemy, they are our best resource. Use it if you will, or continue the way you are - either way is fine, but don't come down on other chapters that do use the GF resources.
