I must say, all this talk angers me. As a proud member of Iota Phi Theta Sweethearts, and a member of Delta Sigma Theta Sorority, Inc, it is apparent that all hearts, angels,etc. are not the same! And just like there are loud hearts, angels, and diamonds, there are loud sorors! And I know that compared to our bruhs, the Ques, loud isn't even the word! I resent the fact that I, as an Iota sweetheart can't get respected, even though we are there to support an organization that is part of the pan-hell, but continuously has to fight for respect, as well as my main reason for joining was to help them plan COMMUNITY SERVICE! Ugh! Wake up people! Iotas were the one who helped me get to where I am today, as one of your Sorors! I really resent the fact that upon finding out that I was heart as well as a Delta, my own sorors shyed away from me! I do not get the same treatment as a heart. When the find out that I'm a Delta, they congratulate me. Now can you say the same? I am one of your sorors, who is also an Iota Sweetheart, who obviously is an upstanding member of my college community, or I wouldn't be a Delta, and it hurts my heart that someone would treat me that way just because of a decision that I am proud of. I bet you would be congratulating me if I was defending my sorority against those who oppose greek life in it's entirety. So guess what? As a heart, I am recognized nationally, just as I am in Delta.

Soror, it is interesting that you're so bothered by this discussion. It is good for you to feel proud that you are nationally recognized as an Iota Sweetheart...it is good for YOU. However, what you CHOOSE to do is an individual decision. As your soror, I am only obligated to be LOVING and SISTERLY toward you as a person and as a fellow member of DST...not respect you as a sweetheart. In my OPINION, your membership in DST supercedes and cancels out your sweetheart membership. I do not doubt your love for Delta, but I hope your love for Delta is not being shared with that for Iota Sweetheartdom. "ALL of my love, my peace and happiness...I will give to DELTA...."
