However, i was not popular by any means and if someone did Research on me i think that they would have an oppionion of me that is not based on reality. I do support applications and recs (even non-greek recs like from former teachers or something) to make some basis, just not talking to people about me and basing cuts based on who "knows" me.

Sorry I didn't respond sooner. This is were I am coming from. I strongly support GPA, we need academic credibility; I support a resume- though I would prefer it if it had service activities, not popularity contests (ie homecoming). I just don't believe that being homecoming queen says anything about who you are inside. You could be the next Mother Teresa or you could be a complete bitch who just controls people. I'm not trying to discriminate against women who were adored in HS, I just want everyone to have the chance to change, evolve and have a wonderful support system with fabulous sisters.
To be honest, if I had found out my chapter 'researched' me, I would not have joined. That is too big brother(sister?) creepy for me.
alphaalpha- you totally have me right!!
