Congratulations to Rho Beta!!

On a side note, why don't we ever hear much of anything about the colonies or installations? Nothing was said on inCircle and I don't recall seeing anything in To Dragma about the installation (upcoming or otherwise). Or am I just completely out of the loop on things. . . .

I am guessing that it wasn't in To Dragma because they are saving info about all three installations for the next issue. Also, as for inCircle, each colony has their own group and usually information is in there. We can post something on the main forum though but the main AOII site is usually current.

Columbus State is the last to be chartered and that is sometime in April. I don't know the date.

They do announce the colonization and installation information on the international website. I go check there every few months to see if anything new is going on in the colonies. I'm wondering when Columbus State is going to be installed.

I have a charter question- maybe it was answered somewhere else, but I didn't see it anywhere...

When a chapter is re-chartered, do the new members sign a new charter, or is the old charter pulled out of storage? I remember our charter hanging proudly in our sitting room but I wasn't sure what happens when a chapter is re-chartered. (or do they have two charters hanging up?)

Good Question!

The women get to sign a new charter and if there are alumna initiates, they usually get to sign too. The original charter can be returned and both are displayed in a place of honor. Mr. aopirose is a recharter president. The original charter hangs on the wall opposite the new one and next to those are composites of each set of founding members.

Thanks for the answer. It seems like that would be the best solution- honoring both the original chartering members and the re-chartering members.
