The office told me that it would be up to the sorority to request permission to return to campus.

I realize that I don't know anything about the inner workings of sorority life, but I wanted to see if I would have a chance at joining during my undergraduate years or wait until after graduation.

I have no intentions of asking any membership related questions. I can respect the rules of this forum.

In my initial post I was trying to let you know that I had no way of witnessing first hand how members of your sorority conduct themselves on a daily basis, so that anyone responding would know why I ask the question I ask.

I mean no disrespect to anyone and I greatly appreciate the intellegent and kind replies I have received.
Firstly, I am going to give you a break because I suspect you are young and lack patience and understanding. However, let me ask you this question, is there a graduate chapter in your current city or location and have you tried to find their activities and attend them? My Sorority is a "global" organization, it would behoove you to find nearby chapters, somehow, someway. Moreover, are you just willing to give up on one try at your Student Affairs office? I would think there is some leverage in the phonebook or better yet, aka1908.com... This is what we mean when we talk about doing your research... What you are doing is stepping up to us with half a deck and trying to call somebody's bluff...

(Y'all can tell I'm excited to go the Las Vega$)

The best you can do now is to pursue the graduate chapter and participate in some of the public events that you are allowed to attend. That would be the best way one could go about it and see my sorors in action. Now you have been told how to go about doing that...
