As I stated earlier the latest change of affiliation from a small national to a larger and stronger one is certainly not the first, nor will it be the last. It has happened many times. At Kent State University SEVEN chapters of AES sororities all left their nationals over a period of a few years to become NPC chapters, most shopping for a new national while still operating as a chapter of their former national. I doubt that any of the AES national organizations were encouraging this action.

So that situation doesn't really have anything to do with these because you're looking at a period of 14 years between withdrawal from KBG and affiliation with ADPi.
