Thank you for clearing that up! For a second there all the little egalitarian hairs were standing up on the back of my neck. The latter model being the one we hope to follow in ASC. For a fraternity that is bent on changing a couple of things, ASC is not about changing squat when it comes to our business, branding, ritual, etc. A lot of things I've noted while surfing the net make more sense to me now.
Assuming that a local GLO starts from the ground up at the U of A, and opens those chapters you mentioned, they historically have their own letters, correct? Like Tau Chi chapter or something. One thing we had decided early on was to opt for a name - like a Greek reference, for example: ASC, Phalanx Chapter... well, maybe not, that one's rather vulnerable to derison now that I look at it... How about Troy, something like that... Hmmm, there it is again! Maybe we'll scrap that idea! Go with one letter, like Zeta.
Sorry, thinking out loud.
