I guess I wish that these folks had said they'd decided to disaffiliate with Alpha Phi Omega and start their own fraternity, rather than say they've changed names. I can call myself by a different name, but it doesn't change who I am.
To be fair, the clarification came from the 'adults' (and I use that term loosely!) on the Board, but the decision to affirm the BOD's move was passed by the voting body of Alpha Phi Omega, the National Convention. (Which, is made up of over 90% student voting delegates)
By doing what has been done, they have broken the first sentence of our Oath: "...to exemplify the principles and to advance the organization of Alpha Phi Omega..." There is no advancement of the organization here. It is a blatant attempt to discredit what was affirmed by their fellow students.
I just feel sad.
