My mother grew up overseas, so she doesn't quite understand the greek system. She's met a lot of my sisters and likes them... she is always keeping half an eye out for lily of the valley and giraffe stuff

and I think she wishes she'd had the opportunity to go greek. (I'd suggest alum initiation, but I'm waiting for AEPhi to offer it

)
My dad is vehemently anti-greek.

He really buys into the "drunken frat boy/slutty sorority girl" stereotype. It didn't help that when he rushed, a brother of one fraternity asked him what he'd do if he was at a party and noticed a brother being sick because he'd had too much to drink.
