To me, AI should be saying "I love those Kate Spade kitten heels with the little bow."

You should want to join my sorority, not any old sorority that will take you.
I never contacted any group other than ZTA, because that is where I received my bid in college all those years ago, and that's where I wanted to be.

However, I don't see anything wrong with women who were not in my situation feeling out more than one group. After all, I got to go to rush parties in school and see what the other groups were about. Why should AI be any different? During rush week, you meet women from a number of houses, and then it's mutual selection.... shouldn't that be the case with AI?

Can you imagine if, in college, you were told, "OK, we know you've never visited any of the houses, nor met any of the women, but we want to know which GLO you want to be in."

How can you know if Kate Spade shoes fit if you've never tried them on?
