I think the next thing will be whether or not to use the term sister and then get a program for sisterhood.

I agree. I strongly feel that the word sister should not exist in a fraternity.

like the statement of Frank Reed Horton. Changing "to give men.." to say that he said "to give people" How can you change what the founder of your organization once said.

I totally disagree with the changing of the words of the founder. It's like the original purpose. How can you change what was purposed. If this was the purpose of the fraternity and why it was founded, why have we changed it? As a woman in a fraternity, I knew I was joining a fraternity. If I wanted to be in a sorority I would have joined one. I don't feel the need to change the toast song to make me feel welcome.

All the years of the multi-tude of members were assembled in the hall of the convention. And when the toast song was sung, everybody young and old knew the words. Shatter that, and you'll everybody sounding like jibber-jabber. Some singing it different than the individuals who have it memorized.

I don't agree with that. I think if the toast song is changed *hopefully it won't be* but if it is, then I think people will learn the new one or not sing it.
