Sorors, I really don't agree with raising the minimum gpa to 3.0. Why? Because I would not have made it!
When I was pursuing membership into Sigma, I had a 2.8 gpa as a chemistry major. I was also a regional officer for NSBE, an officer in the chemistry fraternity, and working 2 jobs for a total of 40 hours/week working. Even though my gpa was a 2.8, it didn't mean that I was just sitting around doing nothing. I was very involved and plus I had to hustle to get the money to pay tuition (and my fees as well!)
I think that raising the gpa to 3.0 will make a lot of quality women who want to give to our sisterhood ineligible. We should be after quality women, but gpa isn't always an indication of that.
