PiLambda,
Dont you think you are being a little rash about this......possibly even showing very little faith in our organization. To have our symbol demeaned the way it was is personal disrespect to all of us, and if you dont feel like that, well then thats a shame. There are quite a few people up here, who, if they say something, you can pretty much take it to the bank. Not to mention there are brothers from IHQ who frequent this forum as well. I mean if Tom Earp, Jono Hren, John Gezelius, or Lynn Chipperfield (Sorry if I missed someone who I talk to frequently), say that something is being taken care, then you can guarantee that the situation is being handled by the necessary people.
To say that IHQ has bigger fish to fry is in fact truth. Yes they have to deal with finances and which chapters need to be reprimanded, but when someone takes our symbol and defaces it the way that they did, well I believe that would fall under the part of creed, and I quote 'and strength to fight for its teachings', because our Coat of Arms, is not just some symbol that we display, but our outward visualiization of what our fraternity is about, in essence it sums up most of our teachings. You can take that one symbol and point out almost (if if not everything) that we as men of Lambda Chi Alpha stand for.
So yes, it may seem trivial to some people, but this is OUR symbol, and it should be treated with the utmost respect that it embodies.
Like I said, im not trying to step on anyones toes or anything, but If anyone of these men say that the situation is being handled, then nothing more needs to be said, because it is in fact already being taken care of.
