Sorority By-Laws and when there are exceptions

[FSMOM]

I am not sure about a clause, but my friend's daughter is pretty certain this is the rule. It was even discussed during her interview - they asked her about the candidate and she told them she did not know she was running for Pres because she assumed she couldn't because of the 1 yr exec comm rule. This individual told her she was running for VP. The interviewers told her they were aware of the by-laws, but were considering her any way. If rules are rules, what qualifies and individual for an exception? If you make an exception for one, what happens to the next person, and so on???

It depends on the chapter. In my chapter, the chapter advisor can approve an exception if the nominating committee wants to slate someone.
