And to "brownsugardivah" yes, we do pay more dues, because it takes money to run your OWN organization. Nothing compares to having your own so if you are fine assisting the Iotas, then more power to you but I like running things. You look at undergrads and think that's all there is but you have no idea obviously just how big this thing is and how much you can grow, be empowered, and develop as a leader beyond undergrad membership. You obviously have no idea because if you did you would never compare an auxillary to a sorority and you would never think that the fraternities (including the Iotas) see you and your group as their equals in Greekdom. Maybe one day you'll get the opportunity to become a sorority member so you can run your OWN organization and I'm sure your ideas will change.
