This DZ site says that Neve, Sharon and Courtney were all DZ's.
It's listed at the very bottom.
???

I wonder where they got that info?

Great idea on the mag by the way!!!

Now check this DZ site out. It possibly sets the records straight.

They got that info because many of the Delta Zeta webmasters have been mis-informed from years of rumors and speculation. As Delta Zeta's Alumnae Web Tech Consultant, I can assure you that we are doing everything possible to squelch these rumors and get the correct information out there. When I have more time, I will post a list of Delta Zeta TV personalities, politicians, writers and VIPs.

That website also hasn't been updated since the year 2000, and is therefor running against DZ policy for websites (we require up to date maintenance). It's a shame as I guarantee that chapter's webmaster is long gone, taking the password to the FTP with her. Until people stop visiting that site, Anglefire will probably keep hosting it and these rumors will persist in perpetuity.

Hi everyone.
Anyone whom has been ticked off by this article, please email them at letters@usmagazine.com
i just got done writing them.
Even though i'm not a member of either of the groups blasted, I was offended by the harsh stereotype and the lack of fact checking.
Please write to them to let them know that us Greeks are sick of this B.S.!

Is there more to the article than what was posted here? I want to be sure I've read the whole thing before writing in.

And maybe I'm just hanging out with the wrong people, but I go to a Big 12 school and I have never heard DGs referred to as "dirty girls." (Not that they deserve to be called that anyway, of course!) Whoever wrote this article obviously did zero research.

kddani 06-21-2002 01:40 PM

I went out and bought the magazine at lunch (yeah, i know, shouldn't have given them the money but i wanted to see if anyone else got bashed).
What has already been posted is the ENTIRE article. No one else gets ripped on, this is all the information in the magazine.
I really hope DG and Tri Delt nationals get involved.

kddani 06-21-2002 01:58 PM

Additional note: you can also email the source quoted in the article, Jenny Oakson at jenny@uwire.com
Yes, i am at work bored with nothing to do, so i can track down these people :O)
www.uwire.com is the U-wire website

Yes, Betsey Johnson is an AXD, and my personal fave famous alum!

i emailed both US Weekly magazine and the individual who it was quoted to at lunchtime yesterday and didn't receive a response. I don't expect to get much of a response from the magazine, but i'm hoping that i'll hear from the individual. As soon as i hear anything, i'll post it on here.

Yea, I know... I'm from Saegertown, where Sharon was actually from (she claims to be from Meadville... the "BIG" city... heh). She grew up in the house down the road from me. She was also Ms. Crawford County, and she's never aknowleged it or visited any of the pageants since.

I never knew she was in a sorority... anyone know what college/university she went to?

I'll be most interested to hear!

author of article
 
If you go to uwire.com, its interesting to note that the author of the article is also the managing editor

First of all, Katie Couric went to the University of VA, which is a great school. Secondly, I have never gotten the impression that Tri-delts were dumb or whatever. I go to a fairly prestigious liberal arts school and those girls aren't dumb.

DenverDeeZee 06-25-2002 12:44 PM

I also just sent an email to both of the addresses that were provided. We shall see if they responde.
