I come back from fellowshipping with 15,000 of my real sorors and read this isht. You don't know who all is on this board and trust me your story will be circulated. Relocation won't help you.

And became chapter president and attended a national convention as the voting delegate. But she had forged all of her credentials and changed her name and became a school superintendent. The school system in which she was an administrator finally caught her.

Her whole life was a lie (even her daughter didn't know the truth) and it sounds like Yellowflower is following suit.

CT4, quick hijack of this very good post: CTFU at "Cleetisha." Thanks for the laugh.
:p

This is amazing (as has been this whole thread). In our chapter we tell neos all the time "do not roll out wearing letters or 'nalia unless you know your stuff because you'll be seen and YOU MOST DEFINITELY WILL BE CHALLENGED!" At conventions, I've seen seargeant-at-arms, and other "ole heads," who run into bruhs who don't know what they should. After "dealing" with the bruh, their next question is usually "now who made you? and where is your Dean?" :mad:

Yellowflower cleary needs prayer and counseling as her issues go farrrrr deeper than DST, IMO. But in a way, her story points to the "mysteries" and "secrets" behind all our orgs. They may look odd to outsiders, but there is a reason we do what we do.....

See this is one difference I've noticed between fraternities and sororities. I don't think women challenge or grip one another as much as men do. However, I believe that its a small world. If I don't know someone who knows you I WILL call IHQ for confirmation.

Unfortunately, she hasn't actually violated the TOS, so I am not sure that John can go giving out her IP.

What if...
 

Okay, I am playing on hypotheticals here, and just wondering, but you can tell me to STFU if I am asking too many questions...

Assuming:
1. This story is true
2. Yellowflower is mentally unstable, in a manner that can be clinically diagnosed

Would she ever be considered for membership if she got help/meds/whatever, or would you still be as angry as you are now?

It is hard for me to view it from the NPHC perspective, because we all know that the NPC recruitment and pledging processes are very different, and in many cases we don't have to "earn" our letters in the same way.

Re: What if...
 

If all things remained the same about YellowFlower, but make them applicable to PHI MU, what would the answer be?

Personally, I don't go around gripping people who claim to be my soror. I don't see the grip as a real challenge. It is something special amongst known sorors. I'm not one to challenge people anyway. I'm a neo. But there would definitely be proper checks before allowing someone into a chapter meeting. My best friend, who is your soror, had to ask me to leave her house once when I took a Zeta perp to meet her. I had no idea that the girl was perping. She's my cousin's fiance'!!! That was my first time personally witnessing a perp situation. That was before I was a Delta. I thought that my friend may have taken things too far. But when I got my letters and ran up on a couple of perp situations, I felt her. I don't think perps really understand the magnitude of what they are doing. They know it's wrong, but they don't know how deeply wrong it is.

Re: Re: What if...
 

I believe if a chapter found out a girl was wearing nalia and hanging out, they really couldn't do much about it in the NPC. If that girl were to transfer to another school, unless she put out a memo, we'd never know it. With over 1,000 pnm's going through recruitment, it is very unlikely she'd be figured out. She may very well join at another school and there's not really much we could do.

But we don't freek out as bad about wearing different letters. Our recruitment shirts have ALL NPC groups on them. I wear my boyfriends letters and he wears mine and no one cares. It's just different. That's why the previous poster asked what she did. It's looked at a little differently.

Re: Re: Re: What if...
 

I understand all of that since I do have a pretty good understanding of NPC in general.

Basically, what I am saying is NO COMMENT.

Sounds like apples and oranges to me.

Hello everyone,

I'm new to GreekChat and am really enjoying the posts.

It appears to me that your outrage regarding this misguided young lady is similar to the outrage exhibited by my brothers and sisters of the law when someone is found to be engaged in the unauthorized practice of law. In our case, this person is taking money out of our pockets and possibly making the profession look bad if they are giving out bad advice. I look forward to one day joining an organization such as Delta where there is such fierce loyalty and pride. Pray for her and be gentle in showing her the errors of her ways. Don't put too much of a whoopin' on her behind! ;)

The End:cool:
