That's pretty insulting to your org that you feel you should have pledge at another GLO.

I'd heard a story of one of our old vice presidents renouncing his badge and joining Sigma Pi. Mind you that I like Sigma Pi, I have friends there and we party at each others houses.....buuuuut that really angers me and everyone considers him a traitor knight. If it wasn't a fit why didn't you just depledge?

Is this verified- I had no idea that this could happen! I'm actually surprised that he was invited to join another organization at all...

I know of a couple of Pike colonists at Howard who are now proud members of the reactivation KAPsi line.

I believe they got around the rules because of the differences between a colony and a chapter.

Or something.

After reading some of the comments here, I'm really glad that the NPC has the unanimous agreement in place regarding dual NPC memberships.

Lol... Ok, so I did, and a cursory FB search shows that 11 men list Pi Kappa Alpha in their profile as their "residence," and only one of those men is a current student. IIRC, there were ~55 members of the colony initially.

There are 29 men who list Kappa Alpha Psi as their residence... and more who list it under activities/interests.

I don't know how many went from Pike to KAPsi, but I do know that a large number of the Pike colonists no longer associate themselves with the organization.

So this phenomenon negates some other threads on here.

I wonder if the Pike colonist who posted here is now a Kappa?

Why? It was just a matter of the Kappas coming back on the yard. But I am mad at the Kappas for taking them--oh wait they have been doing some strange intaking lately.
