Leslie, at Convention, the Georgia chapters decided to change the IRD format from yearly statewide to every 4 years. The other 3, each chapter would host their own. Travel from chapters can range from 1-5 hours. Plus it is hard to find space for 400 or so people. It is getting to be that most of the time the only attendees are the collegiates (b/c they have to be there) and a handful of alumnae (usually only advisor-types). So, GTau will host it in about 2012!! Hopefully with the new format, locals can get more alumnae as IRD was originally intended.
