I disagree. I think there was enough in this woman's story to figure out that there were huge problems with this group.
Those girls were no more Chi Omegas than I am. If they weren't willing to incoporate the ideals, ritual, and policies, they never should have petioned to join them.....they only did it because the university made them. They may have had great sisterhood between them but they weren't willing to become part of a much larger sisterhood. They obviously didn't care enough about Chi Omega to do the work to retain their charter.
I have had first hand experience with the chapter of my GLO that I advise for in a situation where it was on probation. The university also had no clue what had occurred internally to warrant a visit from national officers. But there was just cause and several women's memberships were taken. The remainder of the chapter had specific things they had to accomplish before it was decided whether or not the chapter would keep their charter. The women worked together and even though it took a year to get back in good standing, they did it because they valued their membership and wanted o keep their chapter on campus.
While it's a shame that Chi Omega is no longer at Wake Forest, it doesn't sound to me that they were really there to begin with.
