BRAVO, Seminole Pike! Very well stated!
I too am disheartened to read the posts on this thread. I think it falls into the category of beating up on our own considering Greek Chat is a forum for all greeks, and greek friends to participate in the betterment of greekdom.
We all know that there are some chapters who need some help, and no matter what we do, there will always be one or two who don't live up to the high moral standards our respective organization strives to achieve.
I know that I wouldn't want an entire post dedicated to the less-than-sisterly qualities that some of our sisters have portrayed in the past -- especially since this is an open forum that can (and we know it has) be used against us in other forums, and media outlets. We've all been greek long enough to know that sometimes people, even good people, do stupid things -- we could all write books on what Joe the LXA...or Sam the Sig Ep or Sally the Alpha Chi or Betty the Phi Mu....did at the mixer/formal/party/football game/etc.etc.etc. I was just raised to keep dirty laundry in the laundry room.
