to answer all your questions:

We have formed the local, but in the process of affiliating with the national social engineering org, we have to get certain paperwork [ie: Panhellenic and Student Life Guidelines, Panhellenic Grade Policies, Student Life Grade Policies]. When i contacted Panhellenic about this they said that since the national is classified as a SOCIAL org [even outside of the PHC] they have to give approval to be on campus. The PC said since we were a SOCIAL org and not a Professional, or honor, they have to approve us. I've had a national rep contact our PHC, but nothing has happened so far. [and they haven't given us the info] I wasn't trying to affiliate with Panhellenic, i've heard of it being done, but i've been discouraged at doing so from our pahnellenic. I was trying to make a social org affiliated with the college of engineering, i even had approval from the dean.

As for my boyfriend, I'm not getting a job to support him. It's so I can have some money of my own. I've never had a job, and my parents take care of everything [they feel is important: School and groceries is pretty much all of it] and while i am grateful to come from that kind of situtaion, i would like to earn my own money. The money i hopefully will earn is mostly for my independence, while he will get some of it for gas money [he drives me around since i don't have a car, ironic right?]... and if we do end up married [which i know we might not], i want to be able to contribute something to the bank, so i don't just walk in and not have earned anything [ i don't want to walk in like that to ANY marriage].

i agree with everyones concern and he knows that the money i earn will be 90% me 10% gas money for him. although of the 90% that comes to me, a lot of it will go into savings for my grad school. I guess he wants me to take care of my business so if we do end up together i won't have to worry about his grad school bills and he won't have to worry about mine... my family doesn't believe in college loans and his dad is pretty well set financially, so we both look at our educations as hard earned gifts from our parents....

sorry for making it seem like the ONLY AND SOLE reason for getting a job was to support my beau.... trust me its not, i'm not that dependent, and thats not how i work.
