I understand the whole ceremonial aspect of initation but every chapter at every school is different and the whole process of mutual selection is defeated when you are told you MUST affiliate with you previous sorority even if you tranfer. All chapters are completely different and can differ a lot from the values your previous chapter was based on.

So your philosophy is that women should be able to jump from campus to campus, drop the sorority they made a commitment to, and join another? What about alumnae chapters? They're all different, too. So what, you graduate, move to a new town, and you should be able to drop your sorority and join another through alumnae initiation because.. people are different, and it's all so unfair?

Hence, here i am asking for advice on how to go about challenging or finding a loophole around this.

You're asking lifelong sorority members for advice on how you can cheat the system?

I have heard such things about being "released" from my current sorority and then seeking re reushing in which i can affiliate with another NPC sorority but not initiate which is fine by me, I supposed i wouldnt pay national dues, but would pay all the other ones.

So you want to drop out of your current sorority, re-rush, but only to hang out with the new sorority, not initiate, and get all the benefits of membership without paying or taking on any responsibilities that go along with being a member?

I am wondering if i need to go to panhellenic in request for the permission to re rush or if i am just free to do so despite that it is frowned upon after i drop my current sorority. Looking for advice because i know this has been done before but im just not sure how to go about it. Please let me know if you have any information regarding this, thanks.

I just... I just can't anymore.
