Where did these lists come from? If it's a publicly available website, link to it. If not, then why on earth would someone think it's okay to post here? Listing these girls' fulls names, hometowns and sorority affiliation on GC is a bit stalkerific, isn't it? Not to mention when someone googles a girl on this list, GC will come up near the top of the list.

irishpipes is most definitely not a stalker and I know she did not mean any harm to any of the NMs, but I think posting names and hometown on GreekChat is so controversial because of the privacy issues we've had here in the past.

Posting a link to the actual list itself is playing it safe.
And I can kind of understand that, but unless we're talking about matching to user names here, which IS stalkerish, I just don't think it's a big deal.

It isn't information that would be considered private at the campus where these girls pledged. That might be weird culturally someplace else, but we've got some websites that list everyone's name with a photo and a biography down here.

ETA: Okay, Auburn may not do the photos and bios thing, but take a look at Gamma Alpha.

The list is publicly available and linked in the thread earlier. If you all have problems with the info posted, is it really with the poster here?
