sigmagrrl and alphaiota, thanks so much for contributing your stories. I am always happy to hear that women who are not Barbie dolls have found a sorority filled with sisters who love and accept them. I sometimes forget that every campus is different and that no matter how many schools I may have visited, there are others out there I know nothing about.

I can't deny James' point that being known as the chubby sorority can hurt a chapter's numbers. But on my best friend's campus, the emphasis on weight hurts everyone, including the prestigious sororities. Suffice it to say that the sororities there call one group the "____ Pigs" instead of the "____ Sigs." Even though my best friend is thin, she did not consider rushing, because she did not want to be judged on that basis. All the groups lost out on a great PNM.

Ivy
