I think it should be OK to initiate into another group if you transfer to a DIFFERENT school. I know several people who were XYZ at a school and had to transfer and at the new school there was no XYZ. And then they met people in ABC who were really nice etc. As long as you don't go blabbing ritual stuff, I don't really see the big deal. In all seriousness, girls have it different than the guys. We have to go through formal rush where everyoe is really nice nice to your face and then you get in and you begin to see the real picture. Also, struggling chapters have the, in my opinion, bad habit of having neighboring chapters or alumni or seniors do all the rushing and then when you get in, all the people you loved and met during rush are not even around. We are different people at 22-23-24 then we are at 18. Things and people change. What if a chapter lost their charter and a member went to a new school really far away where there was no chapter to affiliate with? What is the real harm in them wanting to be involved in a sorority? Also, one of my old sorority sisters had to go to a school out of state really far away from us and they did have our Sorority there, but they treated her like dirt and ultimatey elected to not allow her to affiliate because they don't like to have affiliates. She was the sweetest person. I can't imagine someone not liking her. Anyway. I love my sorority, but I can see why some one would want to de-sister and join another. SOmetimes things happen that leave a bitter taste in your mouth and you want to start fresh.
