Well so I did. But why should a sorority have any right to tell you what to wear and what not to wear? I thought the point of sisterhood was that you loved each other for who you are and didn't judge each other superficially.

My sorority loves our sisters no matter if they're wearing pjs, jeans, dresses, etc.

Would you force your biological siblings to only wear certain things? No.

Why should a sorority be different?

G Phi B is a great sorority, and my best friend is one. Her chapter must be more lax because I've seen GPhi's wearing PJs to class before.
Because at some campuses (included nydrms' chapter, not including mine), image is everything, and people were probably making snotty comments about "Look at those Gamma Phis always being in pajamas, blah blah blah."

Like everybody else has said, it's a standards issue. At the University of BFE, nobody thinks anything of smoking in your letters on the front porch. At the University of Deep South, that's probably a standards issue.

Even my chapter dictated what we could wear at certain times - like no letters to the bars/parties/etc, no obviously walking home from shacking in letters, etc. I'm fine with that. I knew it was coming when I joined.
