Shining Star Jones-Reynolds

[AKA2D '91]

This year, Star will have 25 years of experience as a member of Alpha Kappa Alpha Sorority, Inc. (I peeped in the Membership Directory.) Tomorrow, the show that will be aired was taped from American University where she pledged. It will be interesting to see if the "sorority party" will feature her and her LSs.



(I wonder if she will be in Detroit? or attend the RC to receive her "crown"?)


Kudos to Soror Star and 25 years of dedication to AKA.

ETC

Soror Star went to my law school here in Houston. This will be very interesting to see. I will be sure to tape it while I am in class.

I am watching it now and so far it is a good show. Star is wearing her letters and she said that joining AKA was the BEST decision that she ever made. She said a whole lot more but that was the gist.

I am watching. One of the ladies of the View did the AKA call (not sure which one) but Star promptly put her in her place and told her she was not allowed to do that.

It's great to see that all of the sororities represented at American Univ. are taking part in the broadcast. What good PR for the Greek community.

Does anyone know how I can see pictures or perhaps clips from this episode?

I think it was Meridith who did that. That was too funny. I 'bout fell out my chair when that happened.
It was a nice show and they got very nice gifts.

Yup and after Star told her to stop, she did it again. Star gave her a look that if her eyes had been ray beams, Meridith would have been set on fire.

One thing that was brought up was hazing. Meridith asked Star if she had been hazed. Star said what she went through shouldn't be considered hazing but today it is. She said someone put cooked spaghetti next to her face and told her it was a worm. Next M. asked a collegiate AKA was hazing still going on today. She gave a pat answer about how that isn't allowed in AKA and that it was thanks to Star's influence that AKA has a great policy. Star did mention her work as an AKA national officer.

That was the correct thing to do.

I fully agree. I was just impressed that she didn't miss a beat with her answer. If I had been in her position, asked a foolish question on live TV, I may have dropped my jaw first or at least, have that Rumsfeld Stare.

luminarysoul, the pants were bright but it went well with the shirt.

I watched the show this morning and I liked how they put the Greek Community at AU on display.

Sidebar: that was my NEO Nadia

I forgot to TiVo it

I was watching and it was great to see all those letters on display I'm sad Joy didn't sport her DZ letters, though. And I kind of wish she and Star had stood up to Alexandra Robbins last year when she was on. But I'm glad that Star is so proud of her AKA background It was refreshing to see it on TV.
