That's such a shame... I wonder if it's like that with a lot of fraternities, because it doesn't seem like a problem within sororities, especially my chapter. I organized an alum/parent brunch last semester and we had soo many parents and other family members come! It seemed like everyone was supportive of their daughter/niece/cousin and her sorority. And of course our girls weren't *embarassed* to have them come...I mean all parents are embarassing to a degree, but it's nothing to be THAT uptight about. I would always want my families support in anything I did.
I hope they come around, parents and family are a huge asset to any organization because they offer more networking and possibly monetary contributions.
