I just wanted to add my two cents that not every organization lists its famous members. Mine doesn't (Alpha Omicron Pi). I used to think that we must not have any! I found out that we don't do that because we (as in the international organization) don't like to insinuate that certain members are more important than others merely because they became famous. We believe that EVERY AOII is notable in her own right. I don't fault any group for listing its notables, but it really shouldn't be that important. The most important sisters are the ones you interact with throughout your life, and I doubt some actress or celebrity does that.

Just ramblings from another Greek!

Ta ta!
I think their might be some merit to changing the view from "famous" to "every sister is famous in her own way" I mean I agree that it's a great bragging rite to say "My sister is the American Idol" but I could also say, "sarah is special to me because she is the sister I can always call when I feel like crying".

Of course if we are listing we need to add Carrie
