Now the down side is that since the NIC does not have any policy regarding a campus IFC, the campus administration could decide to exclude non NIC members. However, if they do, then that "rule" has to apply to all fraternities. And if that was done on some campuses, that might exclude two international fraternities - Kappa Sigma and Phi Delta Theta. So when the administration refers to "how other schools work", you can point out that on campuses with either a Kappa Sigma or Phi Delta Theta chapter, non NIC members *are* members of the IFC.

Best of luck.
But, remember, for all intense and purpose, they supposedly are supposed to represent ALL of the IFC GLOs.

Hm, makes us wonder if they really do????
