Soror AKAtude,
You are right about the quality, not the quantity issue. And who is doing the judging here? If I am living unrighteously, what right do I have to assess a righteous interest's quality? (BTW, I try to live my life as righteous as I can make it). But you have to ask, are all of our sorors living a life of personal quality?

Yes, your correct that ignorance is no excuse for the law and one ought to think before they speak. As you are well aware, you probably had good "home-training". Then you know that not every interest has that exposure and needs some "role model" to uplift her...
Sure, let these girls fulfill another sorority's need. And our younger sorors may have to be reminded that some girls may lack qualities because of their home-training. If the parents didn't know, how can we expect the girls to know "r ight off the bat"? Do we sorors have that right to penalize interests because of that? Or rather give them a chance to learn from their mistakes? Then, if they choose to maintain their current course, then their qualities can be used by someone else...
