much respect...

although i am not a member of any organization. (no disrespect, but that is just it and that is why you are not understanding)

i am just curious as to why everyone is getting up in arms. i would understand if the MIP process was not in place but since it
is...and no one is supposed to be hiding anything then why all the alarm.(We are not to hide anything from our organization, now
where do you have to let the world in on yours to be on the up and up)

no one would be able to see any of the formal initiation ceremony be it for professional GLO's, service GLO's, social/service
BGLOs/GLOs etc.

so if they just showed from beginning to end *minus the "secret stuff" like showing who individuals voted for(why put that out for
the world to see, and for those not voted for why embarrass them), the ceremony of initiation(remember above you even agreed
this shouldn't be seen) and whatnot(and all that is left makes for a very dull, boring, quick show) then why all the alarm?

if everything is supposed to be on the up and up. i would think that one thing they would show or possibly like to show is that
the terrorizing of the past...*that people are so up in arms about: i.e. hazing* has stopped.(Whether it stops or not do you think
anyone would actually show it on t.v ?)

i would suspect that this could be a wonderful public relations coup. especially for organizations that are getting sued out of their
headquarters.(Why it won't stop the lawsuits)

i mean to show the world that hey...everything is cool now.(And the world will always have it's opinions on if things are cool and
a series on MTV will not stop what is happening everywhere else.)

my biggest question is...what could it hurt? would it do more harm than good? doubtful. the greek system in the eyes of the
public is in a shambles...you can only go up from here.

(Again with no disrespect my BIGGEST answer to you is what it can hurt is the sacred environment of each organization, what
it can't help is what has happened in each and what will happened.)

So QUESTION why not let the world see what happens in each by joining the one you are interested in. And if you aren't
interested in any greek world, why would you tune in ??? (guess there are always nosey roseys in the world UH ??)

just some thoughts.

peace
