We are all the type of people who are ready to take control and are used to being busy and having a lot on our plate. I don't know if she was maybe trained to be around chapters that could potentially need a little more hand-holding? But I've realized that our students truly do better when they are on their own. We prefer that actually. :P
This completely makes sense. She may have gone to/helped at/been a colonizing officer at schools where there was (to be nice) a more intellectually diverse population. There are some instances where the colony coordinator (or whatever you call her) lives in for up to two years and that's the norm. I'm guessing she's also trying to make a name for herself within her sorority (I don't mean that as crass as it sounds) and is hyper afraid of not doing everything right, but the fact is if she wants to "rise through the ranks" she has to learn to work with all kinds of people and chapters.

When you were elected president (when all of the officers were elected for that matter) how was the slate done? Did she basically say "I think ConcernedPres would be a great president" or was the slate completely created by the members without her input? Or were there 2 different people running for prez and she was more in favor of the other one instead of you?

I would make an effort to keep communication with her via email rather than phone or texts so it's clear exactly what is being said, and what she is doing and not doing. It sucks to have to CYA like that, but if there's a split in your exec board it may be all you can do.

I hope it all works out for you guys.
