Let me be clear: this list of my friend's wasn't even a full page when printed from email. It wasn't anything like 10 pages.

My guess is that since your friend wasn't Greek at UGA, she's just not able to see it like you or I can. At Georgia, the sororities are very competitive with each other and it's important that every sister look her best. You never want to be the sorority with the sister who is memorable to PNMs because she:
- wore a dress two sizes too large or too small
- toppled over in too-high heels
- you get the idea
I am of the opinion that the reason chapters can be very "dictatorial" about fashion is that they don't want to leave any room for a sister who is not the most fashion-conscious to not put her best foot forward. I don't see it as a problem, really, but I was there and saw FR at UGA firsthand.
