In one case, this person went as far as to imply that we were lying when we said we don't surface our aspirants while they're on line, opting instead to have a neophyte presentation (which we call an Emergence).
Wow! I would feel like I was in the Twilight Zone if I ran across this advisor. When I was working on new chapter expansion, most were only familiar with NPC sororities and seemed afraid to ask about how we brought in new members. One actually told me, "Just don't do any physical hazing, okay?" Then again, this was in the late 1990s/early 2000, lol.
