Also, I have no idea how my words have been twisted to be a negative thing. I was specifically invited by the president of this chapter to this event. I was also asked by several sisters to come. IF in the event I am asked to leave, I will not be making a scene about it. I am simply going where I have been invited to go.
IF, at recruitment, my Chapter director states that I need to make a formal request through headquarters, I will discuss more indepth with that person.

I would like to clarify that NONE of this was meant to be perceived as me taking advantage of a situation. I was not ASKED to leave my sorority, I felt the need to because I was going through extreme personal issues and financial issues. Now that I am back on my own two feet and I have been invited to the organization's recruitment event, I don't see the harm in going.

It doesn't matter if you were asked to resign from your sorority or you made the decision on your own. You are NOT a member of your sorority. You are not an alumna, either. You should not be attending recruitment events. It is really simple.... You are not eligible to rush. Period.

And depending on your sorority's rules, you may or may not be eligible for membership reinstatement. It may not even be up to the chapter to allow or deny.

and now I'll listen as the wind swooshes past......
