Do I hear ya!

The summer before my Junior year of college I was so frustrated with my chapter that I wrote a huge letter to our Executive Board saying I was quitting. I tore a part our Symphony and wrote how I thought we needed to improve on certain things that, according to our Symphony, we stood for.
Immediately I was bombarded with phone calls from sisters begging me not to quit. So instead I spoke with them, told them my concerns and what I thought about a few things and they listened. They enforced a few things and now I feel like I made a change.
I'm a very stubborn person sometimes, so when I wanted out I simply wanted out. But my mother made me realize that sometimes the only way to get change is to start it yourself - and how could I possibly expect change if I wasn't there.
I'm so glad I didn't quit. I realized that though I don't hold an exec position that I do have a big say in the way things are run. I realized how many people were concerned and truly wanted me to stay in Chi Omega.
I don't know your whole situation but I'd bet if you talked with the executive board or maybe your other brothers to see if anyone shared your feelings, you could make a change.
Just know you're not the only one who has ever wanted to toss in the towel!
