[KDMafia]

I to think KD will be fine with the expansion. I haven't heard how the AOPi colony went but KD has been on the expansion bandwagon for a while and they have it down to a science. It will also be nice to have another KD chapter in my home/current state.

I actually talked to one of the women who is a Rho Gamme/Chi at Purdue this year and she told me about the Pilot program. She was excited about it and it seemed to make sense. 1. So many people figure out which org their Rho Gamma belongs to anyway and she said it could be the elephant in the room. She said she'd rather know they know so she could maybe ask them if they'd like to talk to another Rho Gamma if it made them more comfortable. She said that when she went through she knew her Rho Gamma belonged to a house that she also prefed and she felt uncomfortable talking to her about the decision. This way its' all out in the open.
Also, she said that some people are concerned about dirty rushing but she made the point that a person who is going to do that will do that no matter what. She told stories of past Rho gammas "accidentaly" leaving out pads of paper in their colors, etc so this takes away whatever manipulative bonding this could cause.
Her final point was that, disaffiliation has become a much bigger process and isolates the women even more, they can't go to events cause a picture may pop up on social media, some of them can't even post pictures of themselves with roommates etc etc and that it chases away women who maybe don't want to be that disconnected form their chapter. This one spoke to me the post as my chapter is on a deferred recruitment campus and the woman as basically disaffiliated all first semester and it can be really really lonely, especially since they're still paying full dues but can't participate in anything that takes place on campus and out of their house. You don't want good people who are enthusiastic about Greek Life not doing this job just because of that. Plus, it can turn into the only reason people apply is to get out of doing recruitment/other responsibilities and that's not the best representation
