If she had taken that next step and considered whether her interaction with Lambda Pi Chi had might be reason to question her preconceived notions of a "typical sorority," I'd say great entry. As it is, I say missed opportunity on her part.

Would you feel the same way if she had been photographing, say, Chi Omega's convention?

No, it just rubbed me the wrong way. I'm not the only one who reacted that way after reading it either.

Yea, well MC did say that he missed the line that I quoted.
The point of the article is
1. I thought sororities acted like this
2. I met some sorority women who didn't act like this
3. Because of these women, I changed the way I think of sororities

Because that was the first NPC sorority that popped into my head at that moment. I wasn't trying to say anything about Chi Omega specifically (hence, my ".., say, Chi Omega...")
