Wow!! How did I miss this thread?
DeltaSigStan, it really depends on your campus. What goes on at your school is not the rule at all schools, like DeeGeePee stated in her post. Not all of us function that way.
Most LGLOs, MCGLOs, AGLOs, etc. have their own National governing body that they answer to. In most cases, Nationals has set guidelines that the chapter must abide by: having an advisor on campus, being recognized by/and in good standing with the university, being a member of a greek council on campus (on some campuses they fall in as associate/full members under one council or another), etc. This includes following the school's anti-hazing policies as well as the org's.
I was under the impression that in order to have events, use campus facilities, etc. a GLO must be recognized by the university. And, in order to be recognized that GLO must be a member of one of the greek councils. Maybe that's just a certain schools. I know that doesn't always solve the problem of hazing because even if you are not recognized on campus, you can still "function" so to speak. But, hey, it's something.
If the "ethnic" orgs on your campus are allowed to get away with certain things that other NPC/IFC orgs are not, whose fault is that? The squeaky wheel gets the oil. I'm not one for "ratting" on other organizations, but if it is such a huge issue and is out of control, then your greek coucil(s) needs to speak up.
