We talked for about 20-30 minutes, off and on, as other people came up. Oh-when I introduced myself and told her I was an ADPi from Georgia Southern, she immediately hugged my neck, grabbed my hand, and gave me the ADPi handshake. She was very understated, very "uncelebrity acting"-she represents us well, sisters!

Did you tell her you knew her college classmate, "NutBrnHair?!?" Oh...wait...she knows me by a different name. Nevermind.
Can I also interrupt your forum to give my thoughts on "controversial" Convention speakers?
About 15 years ago, Chi Omega named Congresswoman Pat Schroeder a "Woman of Achievement" at a Convention. (Certainly, politically a controversial person.) She attended. Received the award. Gave a speech and was lovely. She recieved a standing ovation (not from 100%) but overall, was very well received. All should be able to agree she did "achieve" great things -- whether or not you would VOTE for her was another thing.
