I agree that some of the stories are inspirational, and that they also make us more aware of our own involvement (or lack thereof) once we're alumnae. However, I don't know that there needs to be a separate forum for ladies who are AIs to share their story. GC doesn't have a COB forum, or a snap-bid forum, or a "I transferred to another school, leaving AB chapter for XY chapter" forum. I simply don't see a need for a separate AI forum solely for this purpose. If someone wants to share her story once she's an AI, why does she have to have a special forum to share it in? I think she'd be most interested in sharing that story with her new sisters, in which case, it would be most fitting for her to post her story in her specific sorority's forum.
