OK, here is the story...
Our school is run by Jesuits-so ultimately they have the last say...
Our president has a reputation for hating the Greek system.
So, every how ever many years each org. on campus goes through a review process. This year was IGC's year, but this time they went crazy on us. Thhey cancelled rush and had a committee evaluate us for almost 2 full quarters.
The committee was made up of profs and some students (like the student body pres. and senate chair).
The review was presented with information from all sides, including IGC's and came to the conclusion that it was in the school's best interest to keep greeks on campus, but to make a few changes in the way we run things...
Our president chose to pretty much ignore the review committee's suggestions and make the decision that he was planning to make from the beginning- to get rid of us.
It really really sucks and makes me lose all respect for him and any consideration that he may claim he has for the students. He is just really biased, and there is no evidence that tells us that he knows anything about the greek system here. Its sad. really sad. But, unfortunately people still chose to see us as nothing but organized drinking clubs who exclude people- and for anyone who is greek- we know that is so not true. We tried to show him what we are really about and he would not listen. As of what will happen as a result- we are not sure about anything right now. We are still in shock and not really ready to deal with it bc its finals week and everyone has been stressing about school for the past few days and all of a sudden this came up...
I really don't know what to say. I am just sad and disappointed. But no matter what happens he can not take away our sisterhood, our friendship and our membership. No one will take my badge away from me. Not him not anyone.
Thanks for the concern, I will keep you updated
In the Flame, Justy
