I'd hate to think how many important documents, Greek-related and otherwise, have been tossed in the garbage simply for lack of knowledge.
Education is key. If you have anything at all you feel is important to your org or school or anything, put it in your will to be donated to your org or school after your passing.

Still, I'm surprised that ritual books and constitutions are getting out there. I had always assumed that chapters and Nationals safeguarded these things. In ZTA (and I would assume the other PHC sororities as well), these important things stay locked up and only the ritual chair has access. If a chapter closes, these items go back to Nationals. The only thing I can think of is that these ritual book and constitutions that are on Ebay were once stolen and have somehow made its way into an Ebay seller's hands.
I hope that a TriDelta gets this item! As of now, it's going for only $255 which isn't bad when you consider how much some of the pins have gone for!
