It sounds like you've already made up your mind, but I'm going to raise one other point that stands out to me as a bigger concern than the skit being outdated (b/c I think it could be done correctly). The part I put above…if you are a new chapter on a larger campus and ALL the other sororities do a different style of skit, I don't know that I would recommend straying too far from that. Yes, your different skit will make you all stand out, but will it be in a good way? Yes, not all traditions and history are good, and maybe something different would have spoken to you personally, but you have to think about the PNM pool at large…if they see all the "established" chapters doing one thing, and the "new" chapter doing something different, it may not be interpreted very well. Just my two cents. You probably have a resident consultant or active recruitment supervisors assisting you…I would make sure to run the idea past them before getting too far in. And if you've already done that/considered that, then- good luck! I think the skit could definitely be cute!
