If my chapter decided to quit AOII because IHQ was nonresponsive and none of the alumnae were around to help, I'd be upset, but it would be at IHQ and my fellow chapter alumnae.

When the word started to get out to the alumnae that a change might be taking place, calls were made to the LUC Panhellenic Office. I know of at least two women who were told (none of which I'm related to, BTW) that no change was taking place. At best, whomever these ladies talked to was/were misinformed about the situation...at worst they were lied to.

These ladies should have come clean to their alumnae base and told them what was happening. They decided to hide this from their sisters, and I think that's shady.

You're assuming that they actively tried to hide the situation. From the perspective of a chapter adviser, I don't think the chapter I advise would think twice about contacting alumnae about anything if an adviser didn't suggest it first. I think that the situation at LUC was unfortunate, but it certainly doesn't mean that these girls are bad people, disloyal, malicious or shady. I'll agree that they failed to do things that would have kept their KBG alumnae sisters from harboring ill will towards them, but that could be chalked up to simple immaturity. I have to agree with kappadivastar that people are unfairly casting aspersions on her chapter sisters. Maybe what they did was something the rest of us wouldn't have, but none of us were in their position either.
