A not all that "retro", retro thread :)

Grades were a HUGE issue, and being naive to it at the time, I had no idea.

I was the absolute last grade risk my chapter has taken, and apparently I caused a lot of drama in their MSS that year, because the advisors didn't want me, but the girls did...

My chapter now drops all grade risks after open house to not get their hopes up, but other chapters don't...which I think is horrible.

This past year, fall 2006, I was a rho gamma and one of my girls was carried by two chapters all the way to pref, where she was quickly dropped because of grades. I tried to keep contacting her about COB and what not, but she was so turned off by her experience of being drug along that I don't think she will ever join a chapter

I know that chapters keep girls they know they won't take to make their parties look full, etc, but in the long run it is just hurtful to the PNMs they are "playing" with.

Sorry, this issue raises so much controversy in my chapter now, I just needed to comment on it

I'll post more later, I promise
