Re: Iowa State editorial on sororities

Being bid upon and treated like some farm animal at an auction isn't what I came to college for, and it shouldn't be the fate of any woman here. But it is, and it isn't fair to women just looking for friends in a strange, new place.
Oh goodness. I really did hate it when I went through recruitment and I was weighed and some farmers came along and slapped me on the sides to see if I was healthy. Baaaaaa.

Seriously, there are too many things wrong with this for me to even go into, but sheep?! Farm animals?!
