KDOnline, you said it. Now that I think about it, I'm not really surprised, either. So the question is, what can we, as members of the GC community, do to help Kappa form some sound policies and get these ladies back posting on here as soon as possible?

And I wonder -- might it help if some GC moderators wrote to Kappa's Fraternity Council about (1) the value to all GLOs and all Greeks of GC, (2) the value -- to GC and to Kappa -- of Kappa participation on GC, (3) the standards expected of those who post on GC, (4) the standards some other GLO's have promulgated to guide their members about posting on GC, and (5) offering to help Kappa in developing appropriate guidelines?

I think that would be a fabulous idea. It would be especially helpful, I would imagine, to hear from those of you whose organizations are progressive in this department. According to the Kappa website, snail mail can reach them at P.O. Box 38, Columbus, Ohio 43216-0038. I don't know to whom we might actually address these things... "Webmaster" or "Fraternity Council" or something?
It seems that three things are needed here:
1. For Kappa to understand the potential benefits of its sisters' posting on GC;
2. For Kappa to develop an internet policy-- something like KD's would be good here-- by which its members are expected to abide when "wearing their letters online;"
3. For Kappa to develop a network of cyber-savvy sisters whose job it would be to monitor boards like GC and make sure that Kappa sisters are living up to said policy.
I'm sure that Kappa's Fraternity Council will be hearing about this from its members over the next few weeks, but it wouldn't hurt for them to hear it from brothers and sisters of other organizations. I admire KDOnline and the progressive approach she's taken to helping bring her organization into the 21st century. Let us GCers band together and offer to do the same thing for Kappa.
