NPHC Traditions and Practices that annoy you

We have a large grad chapter, then for some reason that no one can remember the chapter split, but most likely it was over a personality conflict. Fine, now there are two grad chapters in the same area. Then, within the two chapters, people have personality conflicts so a third grad chapter is established. I know of one member who was in chapter A, things got heated so she ran to chapter B, things did not work out so she ran to chapter C, things fell apart there, so now she is back in chapter A.

But she's still as active member of the sorority.

2. Not recognizing your own members who came through a different chapter. My soror was at a grad NPHC event and talking to a member of another org. My soror congratulated this other person on having new members into their org, and this person said supposedly "They are not my sorors, they did not come through my chapter."

Now that is stupid.

3. People who take their officer position too literally. I respect your position but you are not my mother.

Or those who think they know it all because they are an officer and really don't know jack.

Shooooot I will be the FIRST to admit that I don't know it all when it comes to my APO Alum Assoc. I think it's going to take Year One just to get everyone on the same page!

But um a rah.... as webmaster for my Alpha chapter, I'm sorry, nobody can tell me ISH. LOL

True, but it was kinda funny watching her run from chapter to chapter over the years.
