As a member of the described "punching bag" above it was very hard to decide to let it go, but ultimately it was the right move - I'm so proud of how the chapter is doing now, and it wouldn't have happened if we did not step aside and say enough is enough.
I am confident that AOII will come back stronger than ever at a point in the future at Duke....sorry to see them go, as they were always some of the nicest women on campus during my time there.
Hmmm, maybe someone should write a book on how to deal when your chapter closes - surely we must have a thread on here somewhere about that!
