You guys are all being really harsh. Maybe this is a serious thread and she just has no clue about Greek Life. During my pledge period, I was never taught about how after you initiate you cannot deactivate and join elsewhere. Maybe she doesn't feel comfortable going to people in the chapter or if they have a Greek Life advisor there. (we don't have a Greek advisor, just our panhel advisor who's a kick ass Delta Zeta, but many people don't feel comfy talking to her, I think because she has a high position and they are intimidated).

Anyways, maybe she also meant that she was pressured to join, instead of forced. We don't know the whole story, and if I was being "attacked" (for lack of a lesser word) I wouldn't feel comfortable explaining the whole situation.

Lisa... it could help for us to advise you if we knew the whole story without any loose ends. If you don't feel comfortable posting it, you can private message me. I probably don't know as much as the other ladies on Greek Chat about this stuff, but I was once in your position. I stuck with it and it ended up being the best decision I ever made because things got so much better.
I don't think we were harsh at all. She said "forced" and that was all we had to go on. We just didn't want there to be any confusion on the NPC rules, because no matter how crappy of an experience she had, she can't initiate elsewhere. No one was trying to be mean, she asked if there was a loophole and we simply explained the rule. Are we sorry her experience was so crappy? Yeah, that's unfortunate, but a rule is a rule.
