If there is a disagreement here about this, then I will step in and say BS
For your information, I worked my rear off on this thread when I was Mod and do not forget it. navan and I worked on this together and now Her Post was deleted which I find distastful for the choice.
just a reminder to you Tom. Navane's thread was a cut and paste from another thread that was deleted. You always seem to conveniently forget that. There was a reason the original thread was deleted.
Whether some Female GLOs do not want to publicize it, that is fine.
I think the statement that someone made above that many AIs are now against the thread are incorrect because I can think of only one who is adament about it and if it was not for AI, she would not even have a voice.
I am an AI and I am against it. There are many of us who are.
AIing is a fact of life now and will be more in the future.
You keep saying that Tom but you won't site your source for this information.Why is that? According to who is it a fact of life?
Snide remarks about those that do AI as shopping and looking for the easy way out are very wrong. Look at how long it took some very fine ladys to AI who I am sure feel degraded by the way it has been bantered about and with all of the name calling to go along with it.
Contrary to what you believe Tom, and this may be an unpopular sentiment, but not everyone is a good fit for alumnae life.Do you hire everyone who walks into your shop looking for a job? There are times when what you want in life may not work out .That isn't a rude sentiment,it is a fact of life. For some it is just not meant to be and that is okay. It doesn't mean they are bad or worthless people, it just means that don't fit into a particular program. They need to go find another avenue to explore.
As for taking long,not everyone does.I had a direct referance for my group although she lived quite a ways away from me and couldn't help. I did the bulk of the work myself . It took me 6 months from contact to initiation and I had to hold over until the spring. If I hadn't had to wait for the spring pledge class to initiate it would have been done in about 4.
Are these AIed members second class, not hardly, are they full fledged members, yes.
I don't know anyone who has ever implied that they are second class
Why do not some of You snarks appologize the Ladies who have AIed.
I am an AI.
They desearve it!
yes for the most part we do
Oh, from the former MOD who is glad I do not have to put up with the crap that the two new MODs are getting now and wrongfully so!
