Another reason why transfers should not rush to affiliate. Hold off a semester...visit the chapter, get friendly. If it's a match, then affiliate (assuming the feeling is mutual, of course). If not, don't affiliate and keep your membership. Because if you do affiliate, and are unhappy, your only recourse is to resign from the sorority.
