I merely asked for backup since I've only been a Chi O for a short amount of time and perhaps there are facts about my organization that I do not know about.

Oh snap all you want. I'm going to end this hijack because I was answering breathesgelatin's question.
Chick, it's YOUR ritual, you oughta know if it came from Minerva's left butt cheek or not!

Dude, I know my ritual. However, history behind supposed ties of our ritual to another fraternities' does not come included. Hence why I asked Nutbrn to answer. I do not think everyone knew EVERYTHING about their entire organization's history within a year of their initiation.

Hey chill. Anything secret would be in your ritual, anything un-secret would almost certainly be in your history/pledge manual or whatever you have. We're not doubting you, the "oh snap" was unrelated to you specifically.

I'm not getting heated up. The oh snap was pointing to the Nutbrn/Oldu sockpupppeting. I wanted to clarify my position regarding what breathesgelatin said. I don't particularly care if Nutbrn is Oldu or not. But, this thread is out of my lane so I will step out and not block traffic.

To clarify, I thought Chi Omega had some sort of tie to/inspiration from the Greek Eleusian mystery rituals. As indicated by the title of their magazine. But maybe I was misinformed.

No, breathes, you're correct. The dentist who helped found Chi Omega drew inspiration from the Eleusinian Mysteries. The names of their officers are taken from the rituals. A quick google search provides a wealth of information, if anyone is interested in knowing EVERYTHING about their entire organization's history after being a member for a year or so.

I don't know, but what's this about Nutbrn being oldu? I missed this.

Is that what I was saying? I know I believe(d) that PrettyBoy and cheerfulgreek were the same person, but then I realized they were just similar strands of crazy.
