She tells all her friends all the time: "Just go to class!!!"  ) and she was saying that they have to turn in anything with their letters until they pull their grades up. Maybe it's just her chapter? Hmm... Also, paying dues or not paying dues? I just don't know.
Anway she loves being an Alpha Xi, and was just elected to Panhellenic! She had to be interviewed by other Panhellenic members as well as faculty. The position that she wanted-and got!-is Assistant Rush Chairman. She will be in charge of all the Rho Chis for Fall 2008 rush. She has a lot on her plate putting that together, as well as planning an out-of-town workshop for them. She is also Video Night Chair (which is kinda like Greek Sing-but no singing and all dancing! She's a great dancer and choreographer), and has something to do with Greek Week as well. I told her she better delegate, delegate, delegate!! |
Yeah, going to class would definitely be a good way to up the GPA.. go figure, haha
That must just be their chapter, because nationals only requires us to "turn in" letters, pins, crests, etc. upon disaffiliation or revocation of membership, and I'm pretty sure they require us to pay dues every semester we're active as collegiate members. Maybe they require them to go inactive?
That just seems fishy to me - I really hope she's just midunderstanding them... I'm starting as an adviser this semester (New Member adviser!!
), so I guess I should brush up on all of those policies!
It's great to hear that she loves AXiD and that's fantastic about Panhel! That's a hard job, but it sounds like a lot of fun! She'll be exhausted at the end of the semester, but I think she'll be glad she took all of that on - it definitely helps enhance the collegiate and sorority experience. Good luck to her in all of her new duties!
