Even if you get passed up for leadership positions..u were initiated and u promised to for a lifetime follow the purpose of the GLO u joined. So take a breather..inhale...exhale.

Go find a copy of ur sisterhood manual, history book wateva you were provided. review everything, often people lose sight of what being a greek is about.

when ur chapter meets next outline a few things that could bring you ladies closer as well as build the strength of ur sisterhood.
- a night out
- community service
-shopping

also open the floor for a discussion. i am sure as u mentioned numerous women are unhappy and it should be discussed

because its not fair to rush ladies each semester and bring them into a sisterhood that is fallin apart.

I hope everything gets worked out..its not the organization that is failin its the way things are being run so dont wish u were initiated elsewhere, just work to improve the great sisterhood u already are apart of
I agree. My chapter had fallen on some tough times not too soon after I graduated and I believe the girls took a semester or two to themselves to grow and learn about each other before recruiting new members. I think that just because you are not in a "leadership position" per se, that does not mean you cannot step up to the plate and plan things for your chapter. Some of the best leaders are in the wings. I think that events focusing on sisterhood as well as a meeting where you can all have a pass-the-gavel type session may work. And I think you mentioned other sisters are feeling you as well, try to work together with them to form a positive, strong front. It may not happen overnight but I am sure that the chapter can be made stronger. I strongly discourage disaffiliating, as you will regret it then as an alumna. Good luck and keep us posted!!!!
