I had several "drunk" roomies divulge MUCH to me over the course of the last 5 years and, my ritual included, NONE of us pledged to not join something else. We pledged to keep all secrets and sorority business to our selves etc. etc. But joining another group was never expressly forbidden. There was one poor girl in my sisters dorm who had transfered from another school because she changed her major and her chapter at that school had gone under and those girls were told they could rejoin a different org.(THey were national NPC) and the girl did at my sisters school. THen one of her old sorority sisters found out and got mad and "reported" her to both headquarters. She was de-membered from BOTH and she didn't even know what she was doing was wrong. We all felt so bad for her. She was a really active member and was really nice and had great grades and everything. Neither sorority will let her be a member and now she can't be anything. I think that is so sad. I only know her because she's my sis's friend but that's what my sis says about her. Anyway, maybe there could be an extenuating circumstance clause or something. I agree this shouldn't be a common thing or be rampant on a campus, but there should be some measure for people in this situation. Seriously, I am the only one of my highschool buddies that has had a great greek experience. All of my other friends (about 11 or so of us) de-sistered, de-pledged, never talks to anyone any more, had nothing nice to say about her sorority, thinks sororites are dumb, all her sorority sis slept with her b-friend, blah blah blah and they all had GREAT pledge quarters because everyone was kissing thier butts.Anyway, I know I am playing devils advocate here! I'm always rooting for the under dog......
