OK, pbpck, here's the thing: awatters said that those girls did not have the best attitudes at his school. I think he has a right to entitle his opinion. Yes, even though I am a Theta, I can accept that not all of us are perfect. All sororities all have a few bad seeds in 'em, as well as the good seeds, too. Don't forget that awatters does not mean that all KKG's, DG's, Thetas, and Pi Phi's have bad attitudes, it's just the ones he has encountered have bad attitudes.
At my school, it's the same "ranking," except XO ranks up w/Theta, too. Also, DZ is "rated" pretty high too. BUT, we all respect each other, and no matter HOW "exclusive" we think we ought to be, it does not excuse the attitude for being stuck-up, snobby, or "elitist." Of course we are all exclusive--all Greeks included--but it DOES NOT give us the right to act that way. I think that his school's chapters probably did not conduct themselves w/pride--rather, with more "snobbery" than pride. There is a difference, you know!! Pride can be shown w/class--snobbery on the other hand, is totally different. If Theta, KKG, DG, and Pi Phi want to keep our "exclusive" rankings, we ought to refrain from acts of snobbery. My Theta chapter is VERY well respected, has a "number one" status, YET, we respect each and every sorority, as well as all GDI's! That has helped us rise to the ranks of "number one."
