While I don't think I will change stereotypes, I definitely think it's a good thing. I mean, at least as far as Kappa Delta goes I'm sure our founders wouldn't want us wearing some of the shirts that I've seen out there with KD's name on it as well. In order to strive for that which is honorable, beautiful, and highest we must somtimes realize that while something may be "cute" or "funny" it may also be offensive and give one's organization a bad name. For example, the greek shirts I've seen based on the Absolute campaigns- that just totally reinforces what people think about greeks in general- crazy students who drink all the time.
Examples of inappropriate content include, but are not limited to, use of foul language, derogatory vocabulary, or references to alcohol, drugs, or sex.
Also, those examples shouldn't be on shirts anyway. Like I said, that totally reinforces the greek stereotype. I mean, why should anyone be cursing on a t-shirt for everyone to see? And sex? That's just tasteless...
AOT Ladies!!
