perfect example....TBS and KKY are both co-ed...but MOST chapters aren't and aren't forced to make that choice...
and i also don't think that that whol e"convince your regional director" thing is going to work....how do you convince someone who doesn't understand or like the all male culture of your org, that even if you stand in a female dorm and beg chicks to pledge your stuff...they won't becaue it's known you are to be a gamma sig if ou wnna be in the 25/52 circle.....
this topic really pisses me off...so i'm going to my corner

Woo woo woo...LOL
I feel you soror. And I agree...to a point...but also we as a sorority don't want to be that "option" just because they are trying to be in "25/52" (and I have to put that in quotes, because it's not as deep as some people make it to be). What I'm saying is that I certainly DO NOT want females to pursue Gamma Sigma Sigma, because either a) they are trying to be a part of that 25/52 circle or b) because they are being "made" to join GSS because the APO chapter is trying to become all-male. I'm just gonna put it out there. It has happened before with certain colonies/chapters. And trust me, those are the colonies that are doomed to fail from the start. Gamma Sig is for those who believe in our cause and are going to do some REAL WORK and REAL SERVICE, for US. It is not for those who don't aspire to do any less.
Of course I have my own personal opinion on the decision Alpha Phi Omega made at their last Convention, because I have had the opportunity to speak candidly with those members that I know. I personally don't find it to be fair, but out of respect that is all I think I can say.
