Quick Question for some Lambda Chis - Page 2

I don't really care/would prefer not that IHQ policed some chapters having some loosely defined, informal program. I was just answering the question about 'Would this be an issue?'

It would actually be kind of nice and refreshing to do that kind of thing described by Ottor and sounds perfectly within the ConStat. And even if it weren't, it's nothing compared to the horrors of these Crescent Girls and so shouldn't really be a bother. Though at our school, the fraternities (which range from men to women to co-ed because "professional" organizations are always fraternities) are all really too high strung (and high nosed) in regards to cooperation with us that if we chose one of the women's fraternities that we are already pretty close to us, they'd pitch a fit. This might not work here, but I like it.

I don't think this is an item that should get everyones nose out of joint.

I think Shane Foley explained it the best.

But, there may there is a big difference between the "Cresent Girls" and what is being discussed here. But how fine is the line before it can be taken to an extreme?

No one is to run LXA Fraternity except LX's. The extreme has been seen and been removed and because of Risk Management, that is one of the reasons it was done away with.

Of course, it is always nice to have ladies around to be of help if they desire.

I agree, this is a non-issue.

I think the original poster should do what they think is best.

Funny thing as this subject was brought up. # 321 called me from the store saying he had bought a bunch of old items that he took when we demolished our old house.

One of the items is a like new "The Crescent Society of LXA cerficate.

Has the womans name on it saying that she has been duly initiated into the Crescent Society as a member of LX Z. At the bottom are spaces for signatures of:

Adviser-President- and Sponsor.

Found it interesting to say the least.

We had something similar at Cal. BTW, the Crescent Coordinator was usually the guy who had the loosest set of standards in the house and would get more action than an alley cat.

interesting....

When Delta-theta was still active at Grand Valley State, we had a informal exchange just like ottor said. I was a little bro to Delta Zeta and I had little sisters from AST and ASA. I thought it was an awesome experience. I still keep in touch with all my big and littles...

However, now GVSU has stopped the big/little exchange program. It didn't stop the greeks though. now it's called "greek buddies" or something.

I think this is now used to build relationships and meet new people, not like the old times...

just my 0.02 usd...
