"UCG, you know, from Sigma Iota whatever it's called"

Imagine how po'd I am right now.

That is all I can say about that!!!

It's one thing to be a pain in the a$$ and what not.....but to NOT know the name of your own sorority!!!???? Goodbye and have a nice life!!

get rid of the troublemakers.

i would imagine that it is not unusual for new groups to try something, find it is not working as they had hoped, scratching that, and trying something different. you are in a growing process. explain that to your members-the reasonable ones will understand. roberts rules will help tremendously.

Clarify the expectations of your sorority in the constitution and bylaws. I CANNOT say enough about the value of this. Although KBG is not a local, we are a small national and have had to rely on these documents regularly. What is the purpose of your sorority? What are the rules as far as procedure? Do you have classifications on member standing? What are the official roles of the officers? Do you have penalties for not meeting expectations? Also, don't be afraid to make rules on wearing the letters. Someone who is so poisonous to your group should have to prove she is worthy of the letters before being allowed to wear them (and I DEFINITELY don't mean by hazing!) If she can't even get your letters right, what right does she have to wear them? She should first understand the meaning behind the choice of letters, the rituals and traditions you are forming, and the TRUE meaning of sisterhood.

I still also agree that those two should be removed. Some organizations actually have it in their history that they started with X number of founders, but the organization was officially founded by Y. If those two weak links are as "poisonous" as you stated, then they will probably have your organization disbanded and nothing but dust by November 2007. You know what you have to do, and I believe you'd get a great start by mutually or forcibly removing those UCGs.

Perhaps these women do not share the same vision as some of you as far as the purpose of your sorority etc. goes. If they really want to be part of your organization, perhaps, they should wait and join as part of the Alpha or Beta class and go through New Membership.

But by the sounds of things, they don't sound like women you want to call your friends let alone sister.
