That chapter should make the initiation into a new ceremony just for their own chapter. Something they can do to kick off initiation week. If it is used in that manner, then it would be appropriate to be upset if secrets are exposed by alumni, or undergrads.

I have to disagree with this. My chapter of Pi Beta Phi was once a local sorority. While the ritual and constitution of our local are no longer used. The local is still part of our history, and out of respect for our history and our former traditions it is not right to share any scret information withoutside members. That means members who were initiated into the local do not share secrets with other. Our chapter to learns about our history and that history is also part of what binds us together. But there is no reason to learn about the rituals.
