No. I didn't.

I don't know what they do. I don't know what their process on how they deal with things is. What I DO know is that because this is a new process, because panhellenic on my campus is still new, that it still has a tendency to be a great big cluster-you-know-what. Don't put words in my mouth, and try to find some underlying meaning behind my post. Believe me, if I wanted to imply something, I wouldn't imply it, I'd flat out say it, thanks. I cant speak for them. I was speaking for us.

You emphasized the word OUR in your original post. When people do that, they're trying to place blame on the other party. (ex. No Mrs. Smith, I didn't put a frog in Mary's lunch box.)

well, I'm sorry you took the emphasis the wrong way. Emphasis can have many meanings. Again, I don't imply. I say. The emphasis showed that I was talking about us.

amanda,

the disaffiliation requirements should be written into your schools recruitment rules. it should be spelled out in no uncertain terms. then if a panhellenic officer or a recruitment counselor does not comply with the disaffiliation requirements, the sorority chapter that they are a member of should suffer the repercussions(which should also be noted in the recruitment rules).

if they are not spelled out, the recruitment rules need to be amended asap.

Could you, or someone possibly send me some ideas on how these rules are specifically laid out in other campuses panhellenic agreements? What kind of disaffiliation rules you follow, and what the consequences are for breaking them?

Unfortunately, everything I found last year that I personally thought was a good idea, was shot down because of the "we're a small school" syndrome. I mean - there were NO REPERCUSSIONS put in place last year, for breaking a spoken upon agreement - so even if someone broke the rules, what was going to happen to them? Nothing. I think I said this in the thread Drolefille mentioned back then - I'm hard core about rules and structures, and without it in place, it drives me nuts. I like to be able to know EXACTLY what I'm allowed to do, and what I'm NOT allowed to do...

I hope things get settled this year. It's a whole new breed of people now....we actually have better relations now, so I hope it stays that way, rather than the cattyness (yes, from both sides, I'm not pointing fingers at them) that it used to be.

Whoa whoa... I don't know that that was actually a dig. Don't take it so personally.
