I have a question.
Yea so it is against "THE RULES" we cherish in that annoying Green Binder but so what. We have sisters who quit our chapter and sisters who quit another sorority to join us. (Before anyone freaks, they quit a local, waited 2 years, then pledged last fall.) We had a woman depledge and now she is working to bring another NPC to campus. Here's my thing. If someone doesn't want to be part of our sisterhood, fine. That is their choice. They should have the freedom to move on and find a home. Isn't that what sorority life is all about? People change over the years. I loved my sorority when I first joined, now there are many days when I wonder why I do it. I wouldn't go join another group because that would feel wrong for me. But what about Susie who got locked in a closet for hours, paddled, and what ever else people can concieve of to 'bond' w/their new members? Say she get initiated and just can't deal with it, major regrets, she resigns all affiliation. We are now saying a NPC sorority is never allowed to be part of her life. It isn't like women are going to go around an join all 26 organizations to know our secrets, frankly they are probably not all that interesting without the people in th org actually meaning something to you.

Life would continue, for example, when AES merged into NPC all those women had to choose which sorority to stay with. The world as we know it did not come apart, in fact we are still walking around, so it might not have been a major NPC life-threatening event.

Those are just my thoughts, Take 'em or leave 'em, but please be nice.
