This is going to sound like a "darn these kids today" post, but....

My alumnae sisters and I have often thought that the collegiates in our nearby chapters would benefit from some sort of charm school/etiquette class/etc. I hesitate to call it "etiquette class" because in addition to proper table manners, it could include other things like how to give a good handshake, "what not to wear" for various occasions (we saw far too many exposed midriffs and thong backs at the last province meeting), and so forth.

We are by no means experts, we just want to help give them a coat of polish which seems to be lacking among their peers these days. The question is, how to suggest this to them without insulting them? Also, how should we present the information? I would really appreciate any suggestions.
