I don't want an AI Forum b/c AI members are sisters and don't need to feel like they need a separate section. There isn't any such thing as a "road to AI"-- when you are offered membership, post in the appropriate NPC Forum to be welcomed as a new sister. We'll celebrate everything to come, including initiation, together. The disbanding of this forum would be helpful to dispell the myth that AI is something to seek out. When sororities want to start promoting AI as open recruitment, they will.

Our HQ's are not going to weigh in on this and our sororities are going to continue to conduct AI if and how they want to.

I appreciate and understand your view, however, I personally found this subforum extremely helpful to me as I was going through the process.. even though I was offered membership and didn't seek it out. I think it has it's place and I hope it continues.

I do understand and appreciate some of the objections expressed here.. but I think it's something that can be solved through a simple polite post back to the PNAI that is seeking AI in an objectionable fashion.
