Hello Sorors,
I was laughing as I read the posts!
When I was an undergrad, I have to say that the Greeks respected each other as far as the strolls go. And of course it was a way for us to show off...without putting another org. down. Now we had our little problems, but they were pretty mild. I think that was because we just ignored alot of the garbage.(or should i say, we did not act on it) Now with non-greeks, I have to agree that some females just don't know the difference. And there are others who are just plain ingnorant!!
I think what bothers me is when you hear of people throwing up the sign, breaking a stroll, copying the steps or even doing the call, that they have NO CLUE as to the significance of what they mean or how hard you had to work, to even have the right to do the call etc. And you have to admit...that is what people love to see, so that is what they tend to copy. Even though sorors, we know it takes alot of work to keep a chapter running SGRho TIGHT, that non-greeks don't see. So I just say unless someone does something really foul to you...then let it ride. I say this because once you go Greek...you are no longer just representing yourself, but your whole chapter(i used to stess this as an undergrad) As my sorors have said, the letters have kept alot people from getting cussed out or beat down!!
