Greetings,

All I can tell you is that the dissolving of the greek system at AU is actually part of a much grander money-making scheme.

You see... this is how the ball falls.

1) This year, the EE/ME programs and the CE programs were merged, which is hard enough to do because one is the private sector, the other is public.

2) Suddenly, instead of a reasonable hearing where we could effectively defend ourselves, all greek houses were suddenly wiped out.

3) AU proposes a merger with Alfred State only 3 days after the huge announcement.

Want to know what it all means kids.... AU wants to go Ivy League. It's always been in the cards. They think that by doing this they will get more money and popularity.

Stupid, stupid administration *scold*. You don't become IVY League, you are created within the IVY League. Ask Cornell, AU is toilet paper to them.

It's always going to be about the green.

Now to answer some other earlier questions...

No, Lambda Chi Alpha will be folded if the University goes through with this. That is why we are extra grateful to all the support our other Lambda Chi chapters have been giving us. Special thanks to my buds lenoxx, Tom Earp and lifesaver.
But no, we cannot exist independently.

Remember one thing guys. I know I can speak for my girls at DZ when I say this:

Through all the hardships that we have encountered, and all the damn mountains we had to climb to get where we are today, it was all worth it. The University can take our houses away. They can take our rights away, hell, they can take our lives away if they want. But they still can't destroy the bonds we have, and the legacy that each of us carries within us.

It's all about Faith friends. And as long as you have that... they can't do anything to you at all...

Peace my friends,
