Question then: Has anyone ever run into a situation where when they listed their chapter, their contact decided that the chapter they're from is at a weak school, or a weak chapter, and therefore, doesn't mean anything?? I don't know how to phrase that better. Maybe say you're an XYZ, from BX chapter at Billy Bob U, and the person you're contacting knows that that chapter is always struggling and is totally non-competitive, so they dismiss you even being an XYZ?? I know we don't like to think that our sisters would do that to us, but has anyone ever encountered it?
