I guess what's good for the goose is NOT for the gander.

BTW - I am not in any way advocating letting anyone who wants in, but I do think it's a bit hypocritical to criticize the opening poster for her pickiness and then say that chapters have to be picky to keep up their prestige...
I think prestige may be the wrong word. GLOs are values-based organizations. We should not accept PNMs who do not meet our values. Sure, some chapters choose their members based on shallow criteria, and I think that is just as bad as a PNM not giving chapters who are "beneath" them a chance.
