I don't think it's dissing to acknowledge that all chapters of our orgs are very different from each other, and that even if you do share letters, there are some chapters that can feel as "home" as your own chapter, and some where you would feel horribly uncomfortable. That's the reality of national organizations.

I dealt with this myself twenty years ago with Alpha Phi Omega. I was three years ahead of my biological sister in school and she expected all Alpha Phi Omega chapters to be very similar to my chapter, however there were a *lot* of things that were different in the chapter culture between the chapter at the school I attended and the one that she attended.
