(Not really, that better not end up as someone's signature!)

I checked our website. There's no mention of the UCSC chapter being formed from a local. I think they'd mention it if it were the case. There is a write-up about our 3 new chapters and there is a specific mention that one of the other chapters, Knox College, was formed from a local.

The difference is that we know why she left us.

Yes we do, because she could dish it but couldn't take it. If you want to enter into political discourse, you need to be able to handle opposing views and not take them all as personal attacks. Especially when you're throwing it just as much. A lot of people on GC can't do that.

I don't think it's fair that she's made into a martyr by some people on here. I'm sure she's a nice lady and all, outside of political discussions she seemed okay. However,some people like to frame it like some GCers ran her off. She left on her own volition, her own choice, because she wanted to dish it but didn't want to take it in return.

I realize this is old news, but it is annoying that people make this like she was driven away.

I think he means they were once NEAR (posting), but now are far (not posting).

While a good guess, this isn't exactly it . . . think more "hot" or "cold"

I believe Alpha Psi (the other local) still exists, so I drew the conclusion that it may have been NBO who became KKGs. I have no way of backing this up. I think only a KKG could actually get any verification on this as fact.

It appears an organization called Alpha Sigma Delta became the Eta Mu chapter of Kappa Kappa Gamma at UCSC.

Gotta love myspace.

I wonder what they had that Nu Beta Omicron didn't.
