I think someone who was expelled and still wearing the letters is sad. Accept that you are no longer a part of the organization and move on. After all, if they had no respect for their letters when they had them legally, then don't wear them now. Also, if the person is crazy and has problems then he/she will have problems elsewhere in his/her life, not just with the GLO.
Not to philosophy too much, but, I think that this is where we as GLOs must be VERY SELECTIVE on who we let in. Get to know the people who want to join your org. When I came through you had to have 30 hours, so basically you were pledging your sophomore year. I hated the wait at the time, but it was good in that an org had a year to check out prospective members.
Not to offend anyone, but when I hear of lines of 30 or more, I really question the criteria the chapter is using to let people in. This is where the chapter may suffer because I think it would be difficult for the MIP chair to effectively monitor all pnms. If you have 40-50 people on line and one or two are wacky and your MIP calendar is short ( a week to a month), then that may not be enough time to weed them out.

You've hijacked my thread!! LOL I agree with everything you've said in paragraphs 1 and 2. Last paragraph though, I have to disagree slightly. If you have 150 black people on campus, then a line of 40 would be a lot. But if you have THOUSANDS of black people, HUNDREDS will show up for information, 40 is selective. It's all relative. Also, people need to be weeded out BEFORE any type of MIP activity. *sigh* Why you tryin' to go there, sigmadiva? Hijacker!!! You know this is another thread. And probably somewhere on GC already.
But you can repeat that first paragraph. Bold it. Italicize it. Underline it!!!!!!!!!!! Shooooooooooot.......
