better to start of local maybe later become a chapter. why? cuz you can decide what you want to do, your own rules, do your own philanthropy and raise numbers at your OWN pace. Well since we are a Deaf focused sorority, we focused on deaf students, ASL students, Speech pathologist/interpreter/spec.ed majors, etc. But we are open to anyone who has the motivation to learn ASL. We dont require you to be fluent in order to join like the other deaf sorority. The constitution was hard but the student activities office should give you something to help you write up one. It doesnt have to be complicated like ours - just cover basics - how elections are done, how long terms, office positions and duties for the position, etc. ALSO make sure to be CLEAR on what would disqualify a sister. usually majority vote and if breaks rules, etc. I cant decide for you what you want for philanthropy - but it seems to be popular to have cancer, aids, etc. I think you should steer away and help a cause that WOULD truly appreciate your help and money like the ASPCA or something local in your area. But on the other hand, if you become a chapter of national - a warning it can take two YEARS and some girls may drop or graduate. also they are pretty strict on what they want. you have to prove you want it not for the name but are capable of reaching their standards. PS - with locals meetings are flexible and there are no worries of "total"
