And why should they? I don't see your point.

Further, for what it's worth, naraht, those Harvard Thetas are my sisters. They, to the best of my knowledge, have all attained alumnae status. I've read nothing to indicate otherwise. They did not resign their memberships. They have a history that deserves to be preserved.

This chapter closure was not the result of a disciplinary action by the Fraternity.

The relinquishing of the charter is painful for everyone involved. Further, I suspect my Delta Gamma and Kappa Kappa Gamma Panhellenic sisters are experiencing similar feelings about the untenable situation which was thrust upon us. Make no mistake; the Harvard Theta women are not outcasts from the bonds which joined us through our shared initiation and ritual. To me, it was an impossible situation and there's nothing else to say or do. It's done. Stick a fork in it, and move on.
