Delta Zeta Reportedly Sues DePauw

[LampLady]

Are you saying that the Omicron chapter of DZ at Pitt recolonized while you were there? If so, as a fellow alum, I was not aware of that. DZ always had the largest number of members on campus during the 70's, so that would surprise me. I know that TriSig came back to Pitt about 1975 or so and KD came back in the late 70's or early 80's. Both of them had been gone for many years. Or were you saying that another present sorority on the campus recolonized successfully in the '80's?

CJR - I've looked in vain for any post that suggested the lawsuit was a good idea. Or, for that matter, that Delta Zeta handled the initial situation well. As the saying goes, two wrongs don't make a right. I know that my personal concern about Depauw's actions is the idea that a university or college can summarily kick off an organization that has a long history and a substantial investment on that campus without some sort of due process.
I understand why Depauw did what it did - I just wish they had handled it differently. It's the same thing I wish about Delta Zeta - I understand needing to reorganize - I just wish it had been handled in a more sensitive manner.
I hope while you are doing research about GLOs you will look at some of the positive threads here. I know that most GC members would not trade their experience in their GLO for anything. I hope your daughter finds a home in one of the fine sororities at Depauw.

That is what KR meant. If she had meant her chapter of DZ I would assume she would have said "we" instead of "they."
