Question for KDRs

So, no - having little sister programs is not "all good" it is bad from a liability stand point

Listen

Our chapter has a fervor for following nationals guidlines so we never had any little sisters. Every other house on campus has them and as a result they have a better extended community, free rush tools, a better understanding of womens issues and perspectives on campus, more involvement in parts of student life that we don't, etc....

a propos liability:

FIPG wants more money so it says "little sisters shall be considered auxilary members and therefor must be covered by a fraternities insurance policies". Somehow we don't have to pay liabilities on KDR sweethearts, which is EXACTLY the same thing!

Just because Ebineezer Scrooge over at FIPG doesn't have a heart doesn't mean we have to suffer! I say BULLOCKS! Chapters should say "Ok, we'll allow girls into our community but not into our fraternity. " And teach them to be proud members of a KDR community and give them some sort of honorary title, like "little sister". It's like having a few "KDR sweethearts" rather than one.

I'm graduating at the end of this semester, so I can say this:
Don't do something (or nothing) just because national says so, do what you know in your heart is right. Because they can be wrong!

Having said that. Kappa Delta Rho is the best fraternity in the northeast. We're small enough to be individuals, and big enough to feel comfortable. National should keep up the good work on expansion projects, and keeping chapters from closing down!
