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.
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!

I wish that people would be able to realize that every chapter has one or two "bad apples" and not take offense to it, but you never know who might be wandering around GC reading these posts. Like the phrase "buyer beware," we should think of "poster beware"...especially if you are a collegian. Alums have a lot more freedom to say what they want.
However, yes, there are people in my chapter that I wish I didn't share letters with, who I don't feel portray our sorority in the best light. Like Forrest Gump said, "...and that's all I have to say about that."
