I want to say again that I don't go along with this mentality, but if we don't talk about it, right here, how are we going to change anything. I am glad that you posted what you did, but you are wrong if you think that they don't circle fat. It is STILL going on and it needs to stop! I'm not going to name who is doing it, but it's not just one sorority, either. It's just time to get real! Let's talk about things that need to be changed and then lets change them. You are wrong about why I don't see 300 lb. girls during rush, though. They just don't come out at my school. It's hard for ANY girl to go out for rush, even legacies, so I can just imagine how much courage overweight women must have. Now, I'm not advocating sororites with weight problems! But, there are plenty of wonderful people that we are overlooking and need to go out and get after regular rush, if they didn't go through rush and even try. Why is it ok for the fraternities to pledge older guys and overweight men, and women's groups don't do it? And again-I know that there are exceptions to the rule, but look around people!
