slight hijack/rant
I hate it when people campaign for the position of sweetheart. Its not something you can apply for nor is it something you should have to earn. Its an honor bestowed on a woman who has become a friend to the members of a chapter. You shouldn't have to do them favors or bake them cookies or do anything like that, Real sweethearts become sweethearts because they do things out of the kindness of their hearts without any thought of the possibility of becoming sweetheart in their minds. And no matter what they tell you sleeping with multiple members makes you XYZ slut not XYZ sweetheart.
End hijack.

Amen.
As to the OP, quit being miss nebby and let your friends in other sororities deal with their own sisters with their own policies. It's absolutely none of your business.

FWIW, back in the day I was not even CONSIDERED for sweetheart EVEN THOUGH IHQ though enough of my efforts on behalf of the then-colony to have their International President present me with a badge replica necklace. Nope, I was told I could not be sweetheart because I didn't sleep with the members (I replied that I was married to the president, but apparently that wasn't enough  ). Once I figured out what kind of "dreams" they wanted a "girl of", I had a completely different view of ALL their sweethearts.

Not related to the OP really, but at my campus, at least when I was there and the groups I knew of, sweetheart or dream girl or whatever was an honor given to a girl well-liked and respected by a chapter, not someone slutting it up or even someone who officially helped the chapter.
I guess it must vary from campus to campus.

It's ok SWTXBelle, you got the badge and she got, well, herpes. From my personal experience with the situation sleeping around gets you blacklisted before it gets your sweethearted

My mom used to get those Mrs. Fields large cookies for me every year on my Birthday. Except it said "Happy Birthday Sandy," obvi.
Those cookies are really yummy!
