Wow, I haven't been on GC all day, and i'm flabbergasted at this.

Sororities have long since had the reputations of being "controlling" and that everyone's the same, yada yada yada. This "decision" is controlling of the acts of it's members. I think most orgs have some sort of a rule about giving statements to the media and such on behalf of your org. No one has "posed" as some sort of national officer of KKG, etc. and caused any trouble. Once you intiate a person, they'll always be a KKG (unless resigned). How can you control everything that person wants to do and/or say in their life? Can these women never openly admit that they're a KKG while opening their mouths? If they're in class, wearing letters, and say a wrong answer or something stupid- does that represent all of KKG? Where does it end? It's a slippery slope!

I know i'm not expressing myself well. I just don't have words to describe how I feel about this.

If KD made this sort of decision, I would raise hell. I'd openly defy it. It's one thing to say that you shouldn't drink in your letters, etc. But to tell me where I can and cannot post on the internet? Sorry, don't think so. If they wanted to put me on probation, etc. - it would be worth it to fight for the freedoms of my sisters.

In this day and age, there's a lot worse things that sorority headquarters should be worrying about.

Would our founders think of something like this? I don't think any sorority founder ever envisioned an org who would limit a woman's freedom such as this. Most of our founders had in mind a place where women could be free to express themselves. A place for women to be strong and have a voice.
