Phi-Skee,
I totally agree with you soror. Believe me, academics are a priority when we are accepting someone. Our chapter had the highest g.p.a. in the Southwestern Region (Texas, Louisiana, Arkansas, Oklohoma) last year, and we could not have done that pledging people with low grades, especially with even lower grades after intake. We strive for excellence in everything we do. Why would we allow someone to go through intake and then they not be able to be active the next semester. Alpha would not be Alpha if we weren't excelling scholastically. That is an important aspect of the intake process as well. When I was going through, we had to be in the library from 7 p.m. - 10 p.m., and our chapter strongly stresses academics before, during, and after membership intake.
