But if our orgs have non-discrimination policies (and don't they all now?), then let's at least stand up for our orgs and say so.
I agree, but I see where people are coming from when they say that they don't know what a group might do during MS. These PNMs don't necessarily know that many things go into choosing a member and that even sisters in the same org that are not present at MS aren't privy to that info. I guess that makes people hesitant to say everything is hunky dory and let these girls go into recruitment thinking it won't be an issue when it may.
