We have chapters in Canada why not the UK?
From the Canadian perspective, I can tell you that we take a lot of flak for belonging to "American" organizations. (sorry). Also, from the nitty gritty point of view, it can be a hassle to pay your fees and have to convert them into US Funds / get a US Money Order etc. Yes, it's easier now that things like Pay Pal exist but we do take a hit when paying from Canadian funds into US Funds. I'm sure that there's other reasons too, but the "being too American" is one reason that some anti-GLO types love to crow about.

Also, collegiate chapters need the benefit of locally based alumnae support, which you would challenged to find in Europe.


PS I, too, would like my big pot of cash, or better yet, have access to the unlimited funds, resources and a lovely Ferrari like Paul Walker did, in "The Skulls".... (eye roll)
