We all know of someone who was a "hold-over" pledge for some reason. Usually this is cleared up the next semester, or the person drops. But what if neither happens? What if the situation gets left in limbo for a long time? Obviously this woman CutiePie2000 is referring to knows what true sisterhood means. She tried to rectify the sitaution with sorority A, but they were too hung up on themselves to think about sisterhood. As an AI myself, I know for a fact that AI's care just as much as, if not more than, about their orgs as the collegiate who joins first semester out. AI's are generally very active, and try harder. I say BRAVO! to this woman. The friends who wrote the letters for her already knwo she wasn't initiated into A, and they SHOULD be accepting of her finding a home with B. I can understand it might be a bit awkward at first, for THEM, but I fell that she should not have to feel anything but pride and excitement.

When she thought of herself as an A (albeit uninitiated) for all of those years, she showed her love and loyalty to A. She was not a "perp", simply an uninitiated sister with a really long pledge period. But when A turned its back on her, she had every right to seek a new home. I am glad she found it. So, she should "come out" in a big, loud way, and let everyone know her happiness.
