It's not just incoming freshmen you have to worry about, it's the Greek and campus community in general. If your name is mud with those people, the freshmen will pick up their attitudes and follow suit. I admit the meth dealer was an extreme example, but my point was it's all about perception.

FWIW, I don't think it's OK for the women at carnation's old school to dump the local and pledge a national either. Personally, I'd be very wary of taking someone who is from a group (local, national, regional, professional or what have you) with a reputation of hazing, especially if she was an older member. AAG put across the only reasonable scenario I can think of, quite frankly - I was pledging, didn't know what I was getting into, and once I knew I got the eff out.
