As far as "earning" letters, my sorority does not do that. I feel that we should select quality women who are examples of what our group stands for and they are interested in joining. The education period is a time for them to learn about the group-- not necessarily to prove anything or jump through hoops, worrying about whether we want them to join. They go through weeks of recruitment being courted to chose our group-- we give them a bid and invite them to join because we think they will be good for our sisterhood-- and then all of the sudden they aren't worthy to be treated with the same respect we treat initated members?? I guess I am alone here but that just doesn't make sense.

I can't really put it diplomatically but I smell a pile of BS here...
Let me give you a hypothetical...
You give a bid to a young lady.. she accepts.. Then she doesn't really show interest in showing up to NM meetings... she doesn't learn a damned thing about the sorority (because she could care less) and just generally doesn't care. Other than that though, she's a woman of decent character and doesn't otherwise have too many flaws... Just in dedication to your organization.
The events were there for her to show up at but she didn't show up.. she still wants to be initiated.
Seriously now.. does she get initiated?
