"We feel that Middlebury College cannot condone discrimination... Groups on campus which affiliate with national organizations, some of whose chapters employ such practices in order to discriminate on the basis of race or religion give tacit approval to such discrimination by their silence, inaction, and financial support.

Tri Delta reports that while their organization's ritual has "Christian overtones," it "has not been deemed particularly offensive by non-Christians, for Alpha Iota has Jewish members." Additionally, Tri-Delta reports that they have no discrimination clauses in their constitution or bylaws. That said they admit to the de-facto segregation through the recommendation process and say that they are taking "concrete steps to combat it," but want to do so from within the national chapter, rather than by dissolving their chapters' affiliation. Sigma Kappa writes barely three sentences, saying that they are "dealing" with the issue and must maintain silence and secrecy for the sake of "discreteness."
