No one ever wanted to co-sponsor a book club or a speaker series or service event--just stepping. Because we're more than entertainment, we would decline the offers to participate in events with people who would never speak to us except to invite us to such events. We were never invited to their parties, or anything else--just to stpe. |
That sucks. I do know that since the D9 chapters weren't campus organizations, we weren't allowed to invite them for things like Greek week and such. (City wide chapters) However, I think another big misunderstanding is the size of D9 chapters can be very very small. How are they going to compete in a Greek week on even terms? My sister had no idea even though they've been trying to have Greek-wide events on her small campus for a long time. But I think in many cases, both sides aren't communicating.
