Lynn, you've made a good point with your post and I understand where you're coming from! But I think that, while we are trying to promote Greek Life, we owe it to potential new members to discuss things frankly. This board hasn't shied away from discussing racism, hazing or elitism, all of which are valid topics, so we should be able to discuss all things Greek-related, positive or not.
I think the fact that there are so many of us greeks here representing our GLOs says something positive about Greek life, because it shows that we care about our organizations and greeks in general enough that we spend some of our free time sharing thoughts and ideas with likeminded people.
Plus, I'm sure that the people who read my initial post understand that that former sister of mine was one individual and was far from the norm for my chapter and, certainly, for my sorority. Believe me, we would not be celebrating our 100th Anniversary this year if every sister had been like her!
Thank you for sharing your thoughts on the subject though, it definitely made me think long and hard about my reply!
