I've read this whole thread and I have to agree, I think we should lay off LMV. Yes, she said some incredibly shallow things during recruitment, but I can't say that had I gone through formal I might not have been shallow as well. The school I rushed at (and the school I transferred too) had about 13-14 houses when I joined, I wouldn't have been able to remember much, but those "shallow" things (i.e., what the girls looked like). It doesn't make me a bad person, it makes me human. While, yes, I don't think she handeled her thread appropriately being bluntly honest, she has every right to be bluntly honest. We just aren't used to that on GC. We are used to PNM's being "sweet and kind and not rude". The reality check of this, not every PNM is like we are used too.

Critizing her and demanding apologies from her just, as someone pointed out, "adds fuel to the fire". People from GC keep ragging on her, she comes and behaves even more inappropriately, but at this point, we (on GC) aren't behaving to appropriately either. And I'm not calling anyone out by name, I'm saying GC as a whole, because as a whole there are way too many people to name that have behaved badly in recruitment threads.

For me, even though she is a junior transfer, she is still 19-21 (I say that because we don't know how old she was when she started college or when her birthday is). I know I was still pretty immature and stupid at those ages. And I'm everyone took a step back, they would "see" that they too were probably pretty immature and stupid at those ages as well.

I'm sure someone will flame me for this, but whatever.
