okay, I'll bite. . .

As some of my Sorors have said before, and I believe someone even has it in their signature, DISCRETION IS THE KEY!

Sit down here and lemme give you a little bit of what we used to do back in the "olden days". . .

Way back when I was in undergrad at an HBCU, no one really knew what Sorority we were interested in until we showed up at the interest meeting. Don't know what the young whipper-snappers are doing these days - don't think too many know what discretion is (hint: I would give the definition to my 8-year old daugher as "shhhhh. . .).

Now to answer your question: I personally believe that the move you describe wasn't in that person's best interest. Like I said a few seconds ago, maybe things are different than when I was in school, but it seems like everything is out in the open now. And I"m sure there's more to it than just the person's GPA getting them in the organization. Back in my day (yeah, that again) and I'm sure now, as you're watching members of your organization of choice, believe you me, they're keeping their eye on you. So I'm sure there's more at stake other than their GPA. How does this person carry herself? Does she hang around "questionable" people with "questionable" morals? You said that this person went to the Alpha Kappa Alpha women on her campus - just let her know that being a part of Alpha Kappa Alpha "is a SERIOUS matter"!
