Yes, in giant font and at the top of your lungs. I've done it.

We've talked about alums writing "no-recs" or refusing to write recs for collegiate PNMs, I don't know why PNAIs wouldn't be the same way, if not even more so.

Wow, I missed that AI thread about the alumni chapters. It must have been before I joined GC.

Anyway, I think it is our responsibility to tell our headquarters. What else can we do- its not like we have any other control over whether an invitation is extended.

I have our Executive Director's email in my address book, and I'm not afraid to use it.

So true! And, yet, so sad that it is necessary for us to have to do so.

What some people do not seem to realize, there is a very small amount of posters on GC compared to those in the whole World.

While it seems to be a major catostrophic promblem here, it it is actually very minor.

But as long as some on GC make a big deal out of it to their HQs, it will get even worse.

Oh yes, I also have the phone number and email address for every member of My IHQ. Big deal.

contrary to what you may think, what goes on in the HQ's of other organizations is none of your business

I'm still wondering why a guy keeps popping up here on the threads regarding SORORITY alum activities/business. Now, if someone is really interested in attempting to AI into an NPC group, I would totally understand....

Yes. I look up the closest AC and warn them. But I do usually caveat that I have never met the person and that the decision is ultimately theirs (but I add that caveat to emails I send on every AI who contacts me).

I would with exactly what you said. It all depends on the AI.

Excuse me, but I thought that this was an open Greek Chat Web Site!

It is owned by one person only and not the property of a few people who want to feel that they want to own it.


Alphafrog, I know what I was refering to, but then again you seem to feel you know me better than I know my self.

There is or was a thread under navanes name, unless it was deleted that listed NPC members and what or how they handle AI.


Thank you for your undieing love anyway!

!
Right, it is an open site. But most people have the common sense not to participate in the discussion of something they don't know anything about.
