Had this situation occurred in my Chapter, I hope I would have looked into what was going on. If the Chapter wants to release the legacy of a valued and generous alum, I would want to make sure there was more "cause" than 1 mean girl's personal vendetta.
But at this point there is nothing that can be done. I am happy your daughter found a home elsewhere. My advice is the next time your Chapter solicits you for donations you should respond with a polite note saying you have donated to your sorority's national philanthropy as you feel your money would be more useful there.

Maybe it's because she directly mentions KD by name, but I'm not so sure about her post. There has been such an influx of "bitter mommies" the past few weeks, that it is hard to know who to take seriously.
My quick thoughts:
I would like to know how this fly-by-night poster came to know how and why her daughter was cut? How does she know it was this girl? Wonder if her daughter cut KD and was too afraid to tell her mom the truth (which, judging from the mom's bitterness I wouldn't be surprised if she was scared of her mom)? Maybe her daughter isn't as perfect as she thinks? UF has a ton of legacies that rush, it is a very competitive greek school with a lot of very strong chapters. Legacies have to be cut sometimes. None of us know for certain what happened, bitter mom doesn't know for certain.
But I agree with the above posters about the "D" crap and I can't wait to see these college confidential helicopter moms fly far far away. Let your kids live their own life and deal with their own problems. You posting on a message board about it is just embarassing them to death.
