Silmanarmo has asked lots of questions here about starting a sorority in general and about ritual in particular. I'm one of the people who has tried to provide some answers to those questions about ritual. She has noted that she found materials available online from Delta Upsilon -- well known for being one of the few GLOs with completely open, rather than secret, ritual -- which she found useful.

Since the rituals for most GLOs are closed, ample seating is usually not an issue, especially for smaller chapters. Sooooo, I was curious why ample seating would play into their consideration. Not making fun, not belittling, just curious. Perhaps the phrasing of my question grew out of the presumption that rituals will be closed, since that is the more common practice; perhaps I could have been direct and said "will your rituals be open?

But I actually thought it might be a little more respectful not to be so direct. I think you have to be reading way too much into it to find making fun of or belittling anyone.

Interesting. I know of at least one or two other GLOs (other than Delta Upsilon) where the pledge ceremony is open.

Thanks.
Yes I do assume some. Grandma always said when you assume, U make an ASS out of ME! Bravo!

I do realize there are others who have been assisting her, such as yourself, and I apologize for my swift confrontation directed at you. I am sure it was misguided anger. I still feel the same about what I said, though.

Best to ALL of GC,
