No, I NEVER would deny my membership in my Illustrious organization. Anyone who knows me knows I am a dues paying, card carrying Sister of the Dove... for 10 years.
Quite frankly, I was not referring to NPHC Sororities when I posted. Believe me when I say this... the "sorority girl image" is NOT the same image one usually gets when you consider or are exposed to an NPHC organization.
Most people (the big picture) think of WGLO when they think of sororities. The image we get is that which was portrayed in "Legally Blonde". So I can understand if the alumni member decided not to initially highlight her membership.

If someone wants to be selected as representing My America, then she shouldn't be afraid to mention an organization that she is a member of. I know that there has been at least one AGD Miss America and I am sure that there are many other GLOs represented.
BTW anyone else notice.., remember when the "41 other contestants" were in the back room voting and the now-ex Miss A asked who showed be Miss A, girls were shouting New York, Oregon, etc....one lone voice shouted "Miss Iowa"!!! (Yea, true, she wasn't in the top 5.)) But she wanted her voice heard!
Miss Oregon is a lovely choice ((and looks like Jenna Elfman/Dharma a little!)
