I didn't get defensive, and if that's how I came across, I do apologize. If you could hear how I meant it, you'd know I wasn't trying to be rude. Was that barb about my org being the "great non-traditional hope" really necessary? We have the same purpose, just different membership target groups. I already said that there was enough room for everybody.
Anyway, I think you are letting your irritation get you off focus. In this thread, I am talking about online and part-time students, not campus-based, full-time non-traditionals - whom I have already addressed as being eligible to join the traditional GLOs. So, for the online and/or part-time female student who doesn't want to wait for post-grad status to join a GLO, Theta Gamma Pi just might be her great non-traditional hope.
