Complicated Transfer Question

[ree-Xi]

The only experience "required" to be an active alumna and/or go go to alumnae meetings is that you are an initiated member.

What "experiences" are you worried that you missed, that would affect your participation in an alumnae chapter?

I know that it sucks to be sick and miss things - I've missed a lot from being sick - but it's all what you make of it moving forward.

ETA: none of what "happened to you" changes the fact that once you are initiated into an NPC, you can never be initiated into another. So what is the real issue - not having "experience" enough to join an alumnae chapter, or that you'll miss the collegiate experience and want to rush again?

Once again, I miss how many schools used to have organizations for "orphan Greeks."

:lightbulb: i truly think ithe OP is looking for sympathy in the form of "oh darn, you missed out on the UG Greek experience - you should deactivate and rush all over again at your new school." Which, in more ways than one, weve already said can't happen.

Comparing apples to oranges here, but i became a member my senior year. Do i wish i had more of an undergraduate experience? sure! but i value my alumnae membership too and make the most of it. besides, after a year or two after you graduate, chances are you won't give a hoot about what color this year's rush shirts are, or who's going to XYZ's crush party with whom (i'm going on what i read on GC; i've never done these things).

It's such a neat idea. Really.
