Slating! OMG, Don't even get me started on slating. I hate the way we do that. Not to go into too much detail, but we have a Senior, Junior, Soph, and Freshman rep for every big committee ("Invitation committee for rush, slate committee-whatever) and basically you are eliminating the democratic process. If the entire chapter-minus 3 people -want to vote you in, but you don't selected for slate b/c one of them wants it, well you don't get it. We also tend to nominate everyone instead of a few people when it may something where feelings are involved. Like Sister of the Year, or Dream Girl. It usually goes to a senior. One or two people get nominated and then someone always says"I nominate all the seniors because they are all wonderful!" Which is actually very sweet, but kinda defeats the purpose.
