Can we make a "knowledge of AI isn't ritual, b/c people on this board are AIs and outspoken about it, therefore if it were ritual they should have ther membership cancelled, but it's not, so they won't, so who cares if we have the forum" addendum?
Seriously, why does everyone seem to have their 'panties in a bunch' over this topic?

Oh, I'd be really tempted to sign on to that.
(except that I do care: about people being allowed to discuss anything they want to that doesn't violate policy)

I don't think it IS ritual, unless all "information for members only" is considered "ritual" by certain orgs. But I think we should respect other organization's right to keep who they choose for AI and how they do it to themselves. We don't go around speculating in the undergraduate recruitment threads about which organizations have which policies about choosing their members- I don't know why we think it's appropriate at the alumnae leve.

If the people making decisions in your organization don't even WANT you discussing this online (because we all know how they luuuuuurve GreekChat), WHAT GIVES YOU THE RIGHT TO SAY THAT MEMBERS SHOULD BE FREE TO DISCUSS ANYTHING THEY WANT?
Seriously, if you're legit (you still haven't introduced yourself in the Roll Call, btw), just let it go.

Just the basic expectations of free discussion within the rules of TOS and GLO policy as I understand it.
Point out to me where I can find a statement from our organization that backs up your claims about GreekChat or online discussions generally. Your repeating it over and over to me in all caps isn't as convincing as you intend it to be.

I don't post often but please add me to the pro list. This section didn't get out of control, until a group of you decided to turn threads in the train wrecks. Take your personal opinions out of individuals threads and your side topics else where. If you don't like people who are "sorority shopping", then don't initiate them into your specific sorority. If you don't want people contacting your organization directly and want to reserve alumni initiation for the people who are recommended by members, then don't initiate them. I think this forum is and can be useful.

You don't need an online statement toots.
I, along with several GCers who've met International Council members at Conventions, TLCs, and the like -- know for a fact that THEY DO NOT LIKE GREEKCHAT.
If you want that to come from the horse's mouth, I'm sure an International Officer contacting you can be arranged.
Or you can start with agd4rie, since she is a chapter sister and all (that is, if you really are a Gamma Alpha).

Sure
Sure, arrange it. That'd be great.
If you know they hate it, why do you post?

After reading everything, and kind of "watching" everything.
I have to agree.
GC is a great place for information but you can get very basic AI information from most (if not all, but I haven't checked) National websites.
So put me as con.
But posting success stories after the fact, I think should be allowed.
