Re: Question

That has got to be the wildest rumor that I have heard in a while!!!!

AOII DID buy a house AFTER we were selected to colonize AND the XB voted to accept. You have to be housed to compete there.

AOII DID NOT get members to transfer to OU nor were "scholarships" offered for these transferees.

AOII MAY HAVE had a few transferees there already. You can find an AOII at almost any school as easily as you can find an A Xi D.

AOII DID have collegians from other chapters to assist with certain parts of recruitment; ie, formal recruitment open house round. However, they went back to their own schools when it was over.

AOII WILL have Chapter Consultants with them until they are settled.

That's the way AOII does it and most of the other NPCs that I have seen colonize. The only exception is buying the house and when to do it. There was one NPC group who bought a house before the final selection was made. They wanted to demonstrate thier level of commitment to everyone. Panhellenic chose the other group to colonize.

I hope that clears things up.
