Question relating to that. If an NM decides to drop the sorority before initiation, what happens to the letters that she's given? The reason I'm asking is because one of my housemates is pledging a sorority on campus now, and for a long time, she was unhappy with it and thought she was going to drop. The sorority got letters for their NM's to wear, only because their NM dues weren't in yet, the NM's had to pay for the letters themselves out of pocket. So if she had decided to drop, what would have happened to those letters? The sorority wouldn't have wanted her to have them if she's not a part of it, yet she would have probably wanted to keep them because she did pay for them.

Well, the GLO has the legal title to items bearing it's letters and the NM technically has to return them. I can't really answer this question b/c I don't see why a NM would want to keep letters of something she's not in anymore. We've never had an issue getting those who depledge to return things. Usually if they paid for it, they'd either give or sell it to another member.
