No, I don't teach with the school, but that is the school that I graduated from and I did work very closely with the Greek Life office the last year or so I was there. I was there when this group started (pretty much since its conception), worked closely with them as well (i even went to some of their meetings) and I've kept in touch with the group's president since I graduated.


ETA: and what I meant was someone could have shot me a PM just saying "hey epchick, you go/went to UTEP right? Have you heard about [so and so] group, do you know why they are using ADPi symbols, etc?" I would have gotten straight on it, and tried my best to get it straightened out.

That is true. I was just referring that other copy cat group, because it seemed like they were the ones that didn't care, even when they were contacted directly about it. I did tell the GL advisor about your issue with this local, and even forwarded her this thread.
