This happened at my school. Story goes that a fraternity was kicked off campus in the 80s and they formed an "off campus" org. Not using their former GLOs letters though. It was a bit of a problem while I was there with Hazing and all. B/C they weren't recognized as a campus organization they didn't have to follow any of the rules. Also, for some reason, guys wanted to join them, so there were issues with the off campus org taking away PNMs from the GLOs on campus, and basically robbing them of the lifetime ties and friendships that develop from belonging to and org with aims and purposes other than hazing and drinking. The last year I was there, an "off campus" sorority had actually formed. And while it was annoying, they didn't cause any real problems for the GLOs. we did have all sorts of panhel rules about being forbidden to mix with them. Its pretty weird. It wasn't much more than a gang. Now I want to point out that these were not groups that were ever interested in becoming affiliated with the campus as a Local GLO, or with a national GLO.
