I think it would be nice if we had some kind of way to donate to a fund which would give Tri Delta access to designated money which was donated for the purpose of buying historically important Tri Delta items from public sales.
I know a people on the board said that if they had the money they would buy the constitution on ebay. I think many other alums feel the same way. Maybe one of us doesn't have the money to do it but be certainly have the money collectively.
Theta has a policy of their HQ not buying ebay items and I generally agree with that because by bidding on them we hike up the price and encourage more selling. For that reason, if there was such a fund I don't think it should be used to buy Tri Delta badges or new member pins, even though those things are sacred to Tri Deltas. However, in the extraordinary situation where a document, item, or pin comes up which has historical significance and rightfully belongs in the Tri Delta archives I think there should be a fund for the purpose of buying that item.
This is just an idea... but I was wondering do other sororities have such a setup?
