this confused me ?

I am just wondering why this thread was even brought up?

It is and was so outdated for a thread!

Smiley has not been on it, why are you? Why are you bringing this up?

I for one, and just my opinion, is let it go because the person who posted it is not responding!

I agree, there was no need to bring this up... but SINCE we're here...

Starang, Phi Mu means a LOT to me, a WHOLE WHOLE lot... but I wouldn't choose a school simply because of a specific sorority. I would choose a school based on location, price, major- but not just because they have Phi Mu.

This is one difference between NPHC and NPC that I'm having trouble with... I can understand having a love for your org. as a whole, but does the CHAPTER not make any difference? I'm sure all AKAs are lovely, but you can't tell me that an AKA from Small Midwest U would always 100% mesh with an AKA from Huge Southern State? Different people look for different things in their sisterhood, and I think being comfortable and friendly with your sisters (wherever you fit in) is on the TOP of that list.

Yes, GLOs are forever, but you join them in college... and that is important too.

Either way, I hope Smiley found a home

I'm not sure of the numbers (I'd have to ask mybest friend who is in the NPHC), but a fairly good-sized chunk of NPHC members joined as alumni, which seems to be why there's so much emphasis on the organization versus the chapter.

if that particular organization was truly what you wanted, there are ways of getting it at your school. that's what i meant.

i understand all that, the chapter does matter. but if XYZ was what i truly wanted, then forget the beef and all of the pettiness that i'll have with a particular member. i come thru the chapter, i pledge the organization. different people might not get along, but in pledging the organization, we believe in the same ideals.
