I am sad, but I also have hope that we can continue to exist and maybe improve upon the good that already is within our system.
We have fears that the university and the town will want to abolish the system completely. In the university's letter they state that they will have to make a decision whether students with be allowed to live in their houses. How can they do this when most of us own the stuctures? I am asking members of other greek organizations, whose campuses have gone through similar situations for some advice on where we go from here? Will the fraternities and sororities still be allowed to exist by their nationals? Will locals even have a chance if they aren't nationally affiliated?
I would appreciate any help on this matter. And please don't be so quick to judge the whole by the actions of a few. Thanks,
Jennifer


If Alfred is a public school then you can live anywhere you want, take pledges, advertise, raise money, have social functions and pretty much do anything you want as long as you are not breaking any laws.

Check out the thread by GreeksSCU. His fraternity doubled in size since the his school banned glos. You can do the same.
