Every ASA chapter - regardless of their origin - should be doing the exact same ritual. Nothing added or subtracted, no additional rituals, etc. I'm talking members only things, not a sweetheart ceremony or a senior ceremony. Those aren't ritual (as evidenced by the fact that we've had sweetheart ceremonies at formals).
However, I believe it's vitally important that every NPC chapter know their local history (whatever it is) and I think that teaching it should be mandatory.
