I'm sorry...I tried to stay out of it but this post had me MAD!
If you really did join a sorority (and bless their little hearts they probably have NO idea what they've gotten themselves into if you're this rude in person) then you will learn (as stated) that membership in a sorority CAN AND DOES last a lifetime. NO chapter thrives without the help of dedicated alumnae who serve as advisors and alumnae chapters who dedicate time and energy into seeing that collegian women get the same opportunities we did.
I AM a lawyer. I DID post on here while in law school. Why? Because I'm connected to the greek community as whole as an alum. I'm a member of my local Delta Gamma alumnae chapter. I pay alumnae dues (some of which go to our Executive Offices so that they can function and provide for support for our collegiate chapters--those people out of college who get PAID to work for the fraternity so that there's someone out there looking out for the chapters). I even helped out my chapter with recruitment (8 years after going through recruitment myself) because they needed alums to help out and do things that collegians aren't allowed to do (like leave the room to get supplies when they don't make it into the space like they're supposed to).
A lot of us here on GC are out of school. We like to know what's going on in the 'greek world' because we know that our membership goes on past college. It's not 'not having a life' it's about sharing experiences with each other and helping other women and men out. Support is key in life no matter what you do.
If you really think we have no lives, just stop coming here. No one's making you stay (and don't let the door hit your butt on the way out--it'll hurt something awful!)
