Please show me some record of this agreement. From very reliable sources, I
have heard there is no record left of it. If there ever was a record of it. I
would like to see origianl documents one way or the other. Word of mouth is
such a bad source of information.
Also, we are not the same fraternity as we were 20 years ago. The actives make
the decisions, as always, and if they decide there should be no all-male
chapters, then they should chage the fraternity yet again. If we were to never
change, we would still be a fraternity of men who had scouting background.
This hasn't been the case for over 20 years.
