No and especially not when it comes to their organizations.

So if being a sweetheart means that their organization's problems are her own, which is why I asked the question in the first place, then okay. I still can't see why she may be more optimistic and actively seeking change than she communicated that the actual members are.

She's asking what she can do to help. She's not just typing and reading.

Well, yeah, but we don't really know that she's contacting nationals and rallying the local alumni.

If I were a sweetheart, I'd prefer to be the sweetheart of an active, rather than defunct chapter, and I might ask for ideas of how to help them.

It just doesn't seem like that big a deal.

No one said that it was a big deal.

Posting on a message board is a low level of involvement, remember?

For what it is worth, some sweethearts do take on certain responsibilities when elected chapter sweetheart. These might include, and certainly may not be limited to, helping with the chapter's rush/recruitment/intake. My guess (hope) is that most of these women would know about these responsibilities prior to accepting the honor of chapter sweetheart.

As for the original poster, I do not know if this is a situation where she is simply doing this out of the kindness of her heart (perhaps with an enthusiastic touch of optimism) or part of some "official" responsibility as the chapter's sweetheart.

Thanks.

Most importantly, I hope the guys give a damn.
