Off topic to the above posts, but this thread prompted me to look at our current CPM (revised, 2010) regarding dual membership in SAI. Looking at the CPM then prompted me to look at our National Bylaws (Amended March 2011).

I was surprised. I found something in both documents I hadn't noticed before. It could have been there when I was a collegiate, but if it was, I didn't notice it. (I was pretty involved and served on the Bylaws committee for 3 years, so I really think it's new, but....)

Our bylaws are plainly labeled on the homepage and no password is required, so I assume I'm allowed to discuss them here.

-No person who has held membership in Mu Phi Epsilon, Delta Omicron or Phi Beta shall be eligible for any category of membership. (<--Knew that one)
-No person shall be eligible for membership who has been accepted to but not initiated by any other national music fraternity or sorority within the previous 12 months. (<--was surprised by this one)

It sounds very NPCish to me. Makes me wonder......but I doubt we're headed there.

That surprises me about Phi Beta, personally, since it is not exclusively a music GLO.
