That is what SUNY recognizes, so that's what's in the SUNY system.
I don't know how unrecognized fraternities got into this conversation...I don't think Jen or Amy or anyone else had that in their head but you. The issue of unrecognized groups has absolutely nothing to do with whether AOX can call themselves a local!!!! There's an unrecognized chapter of Acacia at shadokat's school...I guess you would call them a local. They're not. They're an unrecognized Acacia chapter.

Guess what, the recognized sororities at Oneonta still have socials with the unrecognized fraternities. They exist, and they're part of the problem. Also, don't be so quick to make assumptions about how I define things. An unrecognized chapter of a national fraternity is not a local, and they are rare.
No matter what AOX wnats to call themselves, they are a regional. What is so difficult to accept about the definition of a local? The line beteween a regional and a national may be blurry, but the line between local and anything else is very, very clear. It is a
single chapter that is
unique to that campus. The definition is very fixed, and should remain that way so that there can be real discourse. If AOX needs to define themselves in a way that is inconsistent with realitry, then their deluded outlook would explain why their mother chapter is now facing extinction. They need to see reality for what it is, not their fantasy world of being a multiple chapter local.
