I don't believe in "coming down" on sorors either, but I do believe we have an obligation to help educate one another - the bottom line is it costs DST to sponsor conventions, Delta Days, and conference cycles - and sometimes these events run in the red. Some sorors come to events, see friends and leave - others swap badges, slip into luncheons, hop on buses buy guests passes as sorors and that all costs Delta money.
Now, if we can lecture one another on inaccurate protocol then surely we can educate each other about the financial obligation to DST. It should really start at the rush - women need to know what they are getting into before they join - it's a sermon I endured before I became a Delta and I haven't had to have it repeated. I'm not even saying you have to attend everything, I'm just saying if you attend do so as a duly registered delegate. Maybe it comes across harsh on a message board, trust me, when it is a one-on-one, personal dialogue, it isn't "coming down" on anyone and I hope we can understand that as mature women.
