Hi i'm new here and saw a question that pertained to me.
1. Did you decide upon your organization of choice PRIOR to visiting GC?
Yes, I have been interested in this particular organization for over a year.
2. Would you let the views or beliefs of one sway your interest to another organization?
No, but I can say that I wasn't originally interested in the organization of my choice, but the only reason I wanted to be in the other organization is b/c any female that is greek in my family was apart of that organization, it was never really in my heart and I didn't know much about that sorority at all.
3. Would you let the tactics of another (member or non-member) sway your decision to become a member of an organization you really had no interest in?
No b/c that member or non-member if they became a member won't be the only person I'd interact with in the organization, and so I'd have to look at what they're doing locally and nationally to help out their communities.
4. Do you think that you would be offended if someone came to you so that you could become a member of their organization when you have clearly decided that you want to become a member of another organization?
I wouldn't be offended b/c they most likely wouldn't know about my preference. There are people I know that are part of other orgs that ask me why I want to be in the org of my choice and talk about them sometimes and talk about the good things about their org and their brothers, but it doesn't offend me and they are supportive of my decision.
5. What does the notion that someone would try to deliberately sway your intent say about that person?
It tells me that they are not understanding or respectful of my choice and that they must be desperate if they're trying to recruit people that aren't interested in their org.
6. Would you find fault with the organization as a whole or only the person?
Just the person
7. What does that say, if anything about the person who tries to get you to follow her into her organization when that isn't really what you want to do?
Just that that person is not respectful and doing their org a disservice.
8. Ultimately, what kind of person would you be to succumb and follow when you know that isn't what you want to do?
I'd b extremely weak. I am a very submissive person, but that would be where i'd draw the line. I've succumbed to peer pressure in the past but putting time, money, going through possibly emotional stress and a lifetime commitment into something I never wanted to do in the first place is just crazy
and out of line.
9. Could you look yourself in the mirror?
Nope.
10. What does that say (if it says anything) about your integrity?
It would seem that I lacked integrity and that I'm really not going to make much of an impact on the org or anyone I deal with in life if i'm just always going along with whatever someone wants me to do.
