Those who start the organization on the local level, I feel, should certainly be recognized as "charter members." They sign the chapter's roll book first and have the opportunity to begin strong traditions on their individual campuses.

Same here.
Welp, it only "bothers me" when Deltas do it; I jokingly correct the Omegas (happy founders day to them, btw); and for every other GLO, I typically silently feel they really only have one set of founders.**
**Because nonDeltas can say and do whatever they want but it doesn't stop me from thinking something.
