hey everyone,
After reading everyone's replies, i can see all your guy's points of view. As a student for the University in question, i can honestly say that the shirts of the sororities really aren't that bad, as a matter a fact i can count on my hand the amount of shirts that would be considered offensive. To make matters worse only two sororities on campus can say that they have had risky shirts, which in retrospect aren't really that bad.
When I first heard of this agreement my worse fear was "who" was going to police these shirts. I mean I can see it now, sorority XYZ hates member from ABC, so lets get them in trouble. Also a concern is weather or not this does really change the image of greeks. I mean if you have scandelous members who continue to defame the very principals you were founded on. THEN putting them in a nice shirt really isn't going to make your organization look any better. As a little side note, I can honestly say that some of the so called "more conservative" sororities on campus are the first ones, making-out with each other, talking negatively about the non-greek population, speaking in class about getting wasted, and finally doing poorly in school. So is it really the shirts or the member education that is faulty? I believe it's the member education, i mean if you don't show your members the importance of image, values and principals of your organization they will continue to give us ALL a bad name and the sterotypes will continue to come about. Pride comes from within, not changing the outside in hopes of changing the inside. Remember Recruit men and women who want to up hold those values and want to give or organization a good name, only then can we dispil some of the sterotypes.
p.s. sorry for the mis-spellings
in greek unity,
silverlee
