Please don't blast me. I am one person with one opinion and I'm not trying to change anyone's mind...
EDITED HERE- I am only refering to NPC chapters in this post.
For all the time I've spent on GC, one question that rises from the masses year after year includes the phrase-I'm rushing as a Sophomore, I'm rushing as a Junior, I'm rushing as a Senior...
Now, we are talking about Grad Students???
I don't know, but it seems to me-"There is a season..." and somehow, I think someone who has reached the age where all the other members are Light-Years in thinking and experiences apart, should let it go. I know many of you have pledged later in your college experience, and I think that is WONDERFUL, but how far are we to push the envelope? There are so many WONDERFUL groups out there that offer amazing friendship and philanthropy opportunities the league, sisterhoods and don't forget alum initiation. When can you tell someone that it's time to move forward? I would never want someone to change their goals because of MY impressions, but honestly, 17 and 18 year old girls are not the best companion for a 23 or so year old woman. It's just an opinion and it may very well be archaic, but I really think there comes a point when a person should look forward instead of back, dwelling upon what they missed out on. There are some amazing opportunities, it is such a shame to miss them because one is so focused on a single agenda. This really is an opinion, nothing more.
