should be VERY angry about Alpha Sigma Alpha! How dare they?? Copycats! In all seriousness, however, this is relative to my point - you can't ASSUME they're copying you. You don't KNOW that. And until you can say, with 100% certainty, that they are deliberately infringing on QNXi, then I find it a bit presumptuous to accuse them of it.
This statement proves that you absolutely do not know what you're talking about. We know with 100% certainty that these women were DELIBERATELY infringing on TNX. I find it a bit presumptuous that you would make this statement without ever asking the members of TNX on this board why their response was what it was.

I don't have anything against QNXi - don't get me wrong, I think MCGLOs can be great - but I do see a lot of hypocrisy sometimes.
Yet another instance of you not knowing what you're talking about. Not all NPHC orgs use the term. And because of how our process is, that is what they are, aspirants.

I agree with you that you can't make the assumption. But when a former pledge/interest/interest group becomes the founder of a new GLO that "shares" all/parts of the pre-exisiting organization's surface characterisitics, then one doesn't need a good deal of critical thinking skills to see what is going on. Those familiar with the pre-exisiting orgs and their "identity" can pick up things a lot quicker than those that aren't.
