List of chapters in private area of national website only???

[Senusret I]

I cannot think of a good reason for this, either, unless it was an organization which was nationally not conducting membership intake and generally needed to control the public's access to limit liability.

Understandable for some groups like you've mentioned, but I've seen NPC orgs that do this as well.

I would imagine that this is very possible for our sorority members.

One of the NPC groups did give this as an excuse, but I think that's a load of poo. If someone wants to stalk a sorority that bad, they're going to find where the chapters are, national website or no. All you have to do is plug "Mu Mu Mu" into Google. Personally I think they're just trying to make themselves look exclusive, and being snooty.

There is such a thing as putting too much info on your website, but I don't think a list of chapters - just the schools, no contact info - falls into that category.
