As my LB's have previously stated our reason, let me just tell you this...as fellow petitioners we KNOW what it is to go through it and be so excited to come out on the other side. We have done the petitioning thing for a year and a half as well. But how can you rep crossing sands, when you have not even taken any of the final steps to become a brother. Like VW said, thats like repping the day you go online. You don't you rep the day you finish. You won't be a petitioner much longer but you will be a brother for life, and with claiming sands of FA 02, then you are giving the impression that you are actually a brother and you aren't. You learn a little in the petitioning ceremony, you learn a lot at the rechartering ceremony, thats the date we saw the alpha phi omega light and everything was trully over. So as much as I know we did this for a year and a half, I will be Spring 2003 for life...every process is a journey no matter how long it takes, don't start celebrating in the middle , you have only just begun. Trust me.
