Officer Problems
Hello sisters. I am a fairly active poster on this site (well, not too recently), but due to the fact that I am going to tell you some stuff about my chapter, and I am embarrased at the way they are acting right now, I chose to register a new screen name and post under it instead for the time being.
We are having serious problems with our chapter right now, and it is mainly due to two or three key members, that also happen to have very important, and influential offices in the chapter. These certain members have a little club of thier own, and they pretty much hate everyone else in the sorority, unless you choose to kiss thier @$$es.
Due to drama dealing with LAST november's elections, this division has created complete hell for the chapter. we have tried passing the gavel, extra sisterhoods, and even tried to take it above our heads and talk to our CNS. Some of our members have even confronted one, or all of the girls and asked why they are treating the rest of the group this way, and the three just choose to completely ignore that anything wrong is even going on, but these girls will not even say hi when we pass them on the street, let alone go hang out with the rest of the chapter. I think that officers such as these should at least have a little more maturity than this, and suck it up and do their jobs. We have had five girls turn in thier pins over this summer due to all the drama, and I am considering it too. This is a large number, considering our sorority only maked up about 35 members.
Members that i have talked to are sick of the stuff that is going on, and have tried petitioning to our alum advisory board. The board tells us that they are aware of the problem, but that there is nothing they can do about it.
I was just wondering, when something like this happens, what can we do to get the sorority back together besides just waiting for these girls to graduate or finding a way for them to get out of office before this november? I am extremely concerned that it will affect our rush this fall, and this is a problem, because already we end up between 15 and 20 under quota every year.
Please, give me some advice that I ca pass on to the girls who want our sorority to be the way it used to be.
