MSKKG,
One of the Dean's at Judson was an alumna of Mississippi University for Women (and Smart Men, as some people have started calling it). She was in a social club, though I cannot remember for the life of me which one right now. She shared stories of her time in college with us. It was a lot alike, but kind of different from what Judson actually did.
We have families, each of which is represented by an animal. Some of the families were really old, while some of them (like mine) were started recently. Within each family you had big and little sister connections. Everyone who chose to participate in the families, participated in the college traditions which date way back.
I know this sounds like an off the wall thread topic, so I'll try to explain how it came to me.
My roommate went to college with me. She has a biological little sister, who is now at Judson, who is in my family. She called a little while ago and was telling me about how much has changed. They keep changing things to keep the school out of liability issues (supposedly), so I was brainstorming a way to get the traditions issues out of the hands of the school. (I know that sounds kind of odd and I am not sure if it came out right.) Then, I started to wonder if there had ever been sororities at Judson, so I started doing research. It was at that time that I noticed that my college was not the only women's college that was closing chapters down.
Where better to ask about this than on GreekChat?
