I feel for girls who get cut and I can certainly understand being upset, but this is excessive... throwing up? Hysterics?
There's a lot worse things going on in the world (particularly right now), and a lot worse things that will happen to these women in the course of their life- loss of a loved one, dealing with a serious illness, losing their home, etc. I can understand tradition, family pressure, etc. etc. But come on! Not being in a sorority- or better yet- not being in a particular sorority (I bet a lot of these girls still had at least one invite, not THAT many girls get totally utterly cut from everyone)- is not going to make or break a woman's life.
