Question affiliation

I'd like to know some of your groups' policies on affiliation (transferring from one chapter of your sorority to another after initiation). I know that some groups allow any sister to affiliate.

On the other hand, I've known of cases where sisters weren't allowed to affiliate, either because the girl "wasn't their type" (and these girls were actually asked not to wear their very own letters on campus--boo!) or because the chapter was at total.

I also recall hearing that in my home state where chapters are huge, affiliation is frowned on because some girls will intentionally pledge a chapter at a smaller school where it's easier to get into a "name" group and then try to transfer into the school with the name chapter that they probably wouldn't have "made" in the bigger school's rush. In theory, I guess you could end up with mammoth chapters this way.

Any input?
