If not wearing letters to class works for y'all, great! Nobody has any reason to second guess you.
My guess is that what set some people off was this comment: "I think it's tacky to wear the sweatshirts with the huge letters plastered across your chest to class, it's great to be proud of your sorority, but school isn't the appropriate time to parade around in your letters like you are making some kind of superiority statement."
My guess is that what some on your campus may consider "tacky," Greeks on many other campuses consider a long-standing Greek tradition. What some on your campus may consider "a superiority statement," many other Greeks would consider simple pride -- no different from wearing a sweatshirt or jersey with "KU" or "BAMA" on it. I can see how some would read the statement quoted as suggesting that Greeks who don't do things as you do are tacky and have a superiority complex, rather than as simply suggesting that things are done differently on different campuses.
FWIW.
