Or whats wrong if a prospect approaches a Delta in a respectful way to inquire information about her organization? I mean i hear people say all the time that it's good to establish a relationship with a Delta if you are a prospect. I'm just asking questions for honest clarity. Im not askin them to offend anyone or like I stated before to piss anyone off. I honesty just want to know. OR if it something I will never understand unless I become a Delta then i understand. Thanks.

You totally missed the point the young lady was trying to make. It is a very kind thing to congratulate someone on their crossing, or INTRODUCE yourself and THEN ask questions about XYZ organization. But don't be like "hey I saw you come out on the yard last week, um is y'all having a line next semester, because I want to pledge? Can I have your phone number so I can call you to find out what is going on with XYZ? Hey you want to go to the movies, or to the basketball game, or be the godmother of my first born? What's your name again?
Ya know? Sorority women are people too, and ALL of us have been where you are, so we know the game.
I am always flattered and humbled when someone congradulates me on my membership (and polite and receptive).
