While it does seem shocking that this chapter does not know its own Ritual, I think it's very possible.
I don't know how it is with the other sororities on campus, but I know that my chapter's foundation is based upon our Ritual. Chapter meetings and ceremonies would not be the same without it!
I don't know how a chapter would not know their own Ritual. We've had crappy Ritual chairs in the past, but regardless of that, everyone knew each part of Ritual. You couldn't be a member without knowing it. If we needed help with something or if we were unsure about a specific Ritual part, that's where Advisors and Alumnae come in. It was as simple as that.
It's just shocking to hear that this chapter only made it a point to learn and know their Ritual when their national representative came in to town. Sounds like an issue that they should really work on!
