But you are so right. Be about what you bring to the table and not about what someone else doesn't bring.

Indeed.
When I first started researching Delta and talking to members, not ONCE did I read something or have a member say to me "those other sororities are full of crap...or don't do THIS...that's why we're great." I would've been like "uh...okay...why are you all so special again?" Delta stood on its own merit. It was then up to me as an obsessed (
) hopeful to decipher where Delta worked for me and vice versa and how Delta differed from the other sororities (the differences weren't a huge component of my decision but were just outlined after I had make up my heart and mind).
The nontraditional student thing is a great foundation for that org's target audience and is a place to build up from. But they HAVE to build up from that and not keep coming back to "differences."
