It is organizational issue and not hazing or anything with peoples lives in danger. To answer the question about are these the girls that i would be friends with without my sorority that is going into rush and the new member process yes i absolutely thought that but after that shine wore off and it got down to the nitty gritty of who they really are i have very little in common with the girls who are the most active and causing the most problems and the girls that i have much in common with are older and either alums or son to be alums so their at the point where they know the problems but theirs almost out of the chapter so they don't have the energy/time/drive to do anything about.

Its just a frustrating situation because I feel like even if i bring up a simple issue like the idea that academics should come first above everything else the "leaders" so to speak are girls who don't have stellar academics so its not a change they would be willing to make.

I think a huge issue is that i've spent a lot of time reading on GC and have family members who've been greek at strong greek schools but no one else in my chapter has that background. So i look at are chapter and see how incredibly backwards we are from most sororities and what we should and could be but they don't have that view of other greek systems and any time i've tried to mention anything about that idea i just shushed like im stupid and don't know anything. . . .
