I'm not saying that these women have to do anything other than choose to disaffiliate.

They sign an agreement barring them from disclosing ritual secrets and go about their recruitment a second and last time.

There are "bad eggs" in every organization that's just what happens. Even with going through recruitment one time.

Sometimes being a part of the wrong organization can bring out the worst in people. All it takes is being around the right people showing support to cultivate young women into the best and brightest that the Greek System demands.

I feel like it's necessary to say that disaffiliating and dropping isn't easy for someone who WANTS to be a part of a sisterhood. I feel like the women who WANT to be a part of a sisterhood would happily and respectfully take the second chance and make the best of it. It's not easy being one of the vocal people about this either.

NPC or really. most organizations:"Hey! Let's jump on this petition right away! Yes, let's actually listen to what a bunch of imaginary people and a few non-members have to say even though it'll create a ton of drama and maybe even a few suits if we pass it!"

I don't understand why you're so aggressive and suggesting that the people who signed the petition are fake?

I know for a fact at least half are active in their organization.

To be perfectly honest, there could be suits without it should the women who drop and disaffiliate due to mistreatment feel that strongly about it.

Uh, no - wrong. Wrong wrong wrong. Membership is VOLUNTARY in a private organization. You really need to do a whole lot more research before you going spouting off about "mistreatment".

My gosh, time for popcorn?
