2. If just one class messes up ritual or forgets a tradition, there's a large chance that it may be lost due to lack of alumnae participation.
3. There is a very small alumnae base; since there are no real networking opportunities or funding for continued activities for alum, it almost is a "4 years only" Greek experience.
4. Dues may be cheaper, but if we want a nice formal, recrutiment, etc, we have to fork over big bucks out of pocket because we have such a small budget.
5. Our smaller size sometimes prevents us from participating in activities that we would like to take part in, and makes it more difficult to establish name recognition.
6. The attitude does still exist in some instances on my campus that a local sorority is not a real sorority.
7. Because of the need for leadership, sometimes members can find themselves overwhelmed with a position that they might not be ready for.

This sounds similar to us. You aren't alone. You are looking at sister who was taught from her delphia semester that Chi Delta was founded in Fall 1990. No actual founding date... just a semester.
Family trees also tend to not be documented as well I found.
You win some and lose some I guess...
