I am writing in response to NOT proposing Te Toast Song legislation --
I am a female Brother who Loves the term BROTHER; however there are
some schools that do not want to charter chapters with gender exclusive
language and rituals as part of theri Fraternity.
Also, addidg (adding) a 3rd verse would not change the sone (song), but rather
add to it; just as the history of our Frternity has been added to by allowing
non-boy Scout membership, and ultimately female membership.
Personally, I don't want to see the Toas t Song changed; but if an alteration
is needed, I fully support the addition of a third verse.
In LFS,

Sing we now, both men and women,

Hearts as one we praise together
