My chapter, just this semester, started using "baby".. it's all over Facebook. Even tonight, a picture was posted of the new members after their pinning ceremony, and it was labeled "Baby Taus!" ... it makes me cringe. And you definitely don't need an animal to make it work. Unfortunately.

And if any of the other pledges didn't, all they had to do was say so and it stopped.

I would definitely be mortified if anyone yelled "baby" at me across campus. Unless of course it was a totally hot guy. Kidding, of course. But I think that for a lot of girls, this is the kind of little stuff that can completely turn them off from sorority life.

And would the girls who act up and are sent to Standards be called Bad Apples?
