And discussing it on this website was rude and disrespectful, a lot of members don't even fully understand what has happened to the chapter still. I think it was rude for you to post it to the public to see, it is not an issue concerning them nor you. This is a Gamma Chi issue concerning individuals and nations.
Sorry to come across rude, but this is a touchy subject for all Gamma Chi's especially members as myself who, as a legacy, dreamed of being a Phi Mu since the day my sister joined and feel cheated our of my experience in Phi Mu.

Actually it is an issue for Phi Mu and Greekdom as a whole because what happened to you can happen to anybody.

No it's not. This is an issue concerning one chapter and one sorority. If members of our Chapter weren't even aloud to pretty much discuss it among ourselves I don't see why anyone else has the right to know. Especially since many of us don't even know the full story, so it's kind of wrong that someone not even from our Chapter is saying things on a public website that we aren't even sure are true or not.

And as you yourself pointed out, this is a public website. As such we can discuss what we want. Also if you think nobody is speculating about this even at your own school, then you are dreaming.

Oh I'm sure people at my school are speculating, but if we are going to share information we want to make sure it is the correct information. Until then people can talk about what they think happened but, they'll never know what really happened... not even chapter members.

Sirfie,
If you look at the regulations of Phi Mu, you'll find that Phi Mu gets to put out that information, not individuals from your chapter. This is pretty standard for all NPC organizations. That is why they put out the press release that you object to so vehemently. Unfortunately, as the elected leaders of the national organization, they, not you, get to decide how to explain the closure of Gamma Chi. I can assure you that no one takes the closure of a chapter lightly. They also don't like to spread around dirty laundry. That press release was very succinct. Leave it alone and just go away before you stir up more trouble than it's worth.
Panhellenically,
AOII Angel

I wasn't even aware that a press conference was released. So my bad. Like I said... there are a lot of things that members in the Chapter didn't know were going on.

I'm sure all of your sisters are hurting right now. Maybe in the fall, some of your older members could petition to get more specifics from your HQ. There are proper channels for this type of thing. Unfortunately, when 4 year suspensions are handed out, there are usually serious issues in play. It's especially sad when there are innocent members involved. I'm sure you guys would like some answers, but you may not actually get them. Realize, also, that people responsible for the sanction may not be forthcoming at this point. I certainly wouldn't be willing to come forward and risk the wrath of an entire chapter.

Honey, it's allowed. Not aloud. Aloud is saying something so it can be heard; allowed is being able to.
And I believe the previously posted information was a press release- that's how many other chapter closure announcements that have come straight from Headquarters resembled...
