Sorority "uniforms" - clothes, shoes, etc. - help people recognize "sorority girls""

I hope these student paper stories / columns (below) are universally taken to be jokes or “all in good fun” pieces. But some people, maybe even PNMs, may, sadly enough, take them as gospel.

At any rate, the stories might irritate some NPC officers, volunteers, actives, advisors, etc. because they do emphasize apparel and appearance. And they imply a kind of cookie-cutter look. Not necessarily the chief message most NPC sororities want to publicize – right?

UGA: Tops, shorts, leggings, and more

including this statement: “Any divergence from the typical sorority girl uniform raises alarm and suspicion.” (The author of ^^ says she’s a sorority member.)

Edited to add: The NPC site has statements about what sorority life is and what it is not

High on the “not” list is:
“ A place that puts your looks and wardrobe ahead of your values and personality”
