While I am sure we will never know the whole story behind the events that transpired, we can find contentment in knowing that AGD at UGA will probably not suffer any long term effects. For some reason, houses at UGA never have problems with recruitment. Not to mention, they have one of the most beautiful houses on Milledge Ave. If you haven't checked it out, you should. :)

I personally do not believe that if someone was just making things up to get out of a housing contract, they would spend all this time and effort talking to reporters. I would only talk to reporters about a cause I believed passionately in...

I don't think anyone, except the girls involved in the chapter at the time, can ever fully understand this situation or purport to know what happened. So, while members of Alpha Gamma Delta are infuriated by these allegations popping back up, and rightly so, I don't think it is fair to attack Ms. Davis based solely on information that has come down through the grapevine...

Re: All I ask...
 

I'm not going to say the girl was right for talking to the press, but is it a possibility that she did feel some racial issues with the sorority and just waited to speak on them until she had the issues with housing? I am a minority myself, but I don't complain about every little racial issue that I am confronted with everyday BUT if you push me, I will let you have it....... I don't think that minorities need to be reminded or in your words "punished over and over again" for the color of their skin.

YEAAAA MARIA!
 

I also sent a letter to Cosmo.

Maria's letter did note the facts even if they may have "come down the grapevine", although I am looking at the 2001 Atlanta Journal article that had the same facts.

We may never know the true reason Ms. Davis decided to "come forth", what matters is the actions she took.

Unfortunately, I see this topic being reposted next year at Recruitment and the next year....

I completely agree with sororitygirl2. In my personal experience, I have had *major* *major* (did I stress *major*?) moral differences with a local I used to belong to. A lot of the girls felt so strongly against what was going on within that local that we felt it was in our best interests to not be associated with that. Everything they did, did not reflect the way I believed and I honestely felt their "ideals" were no longer the same as mine.

You can't just bad-mouth someone because they don't want to be part of something that they feel is no longer the same. If the rest of the group still thinks everything is going ok, great! They'll be around to keep doing whatever they were doing.. but you can't force someone to stay part of it if they don't feel comfortable.

I am glad that the allegations were "found to be false" but what I don't understand is how the officials came to that conclusion? I'm not saying they aren't false.. I'm just wondering what their "investigation" entailed? It's not like the sisters would say "yes i'm racist" right? :confused: I don't want anyone to be mad by that comment I'm just wondering because every article out there about it basically just said the allegations were found to be false.

On a legal note, I don't really think AGD should sue that girl (I read about that in a random post on this thread) I think it would do more harm than good and make the headlines yet again.
