She said she was Mexican-American. I'm sure they do have things like applications and so forth, but MTV just didn't show it. After all who wants to watch someone fill out a packet?
Local or not, I still think it is an interesting show in regards to how other people do things in regards to sorority life. I've read some other things about how this show will be a negative influence on greek life, but as usual, some people must look at their own behavior on their campus first. I can recall watching MTV Spring Break and seeing folks posing for the cameras with their letter plastered across their chest with a beer in their hand.
Or on campus seeing members with their 'nalia own participating in "unmanly" or "unlady" like behavior.
I guess I'm looking at like this. I am an African American woman. There are DAILY demeaning and degrading images of African-American females shown through-out the media everyday( some being perpetrated by a channel that was SUPOSED to be about uplifting our people) that unfortunately some people come to believe to be true. To expect every media outlet to stop showing these images is unreasonable, so instead, I try to be a positive example in my everyday life.
