Anyone else see Anderson Cooper's "take" on this? I have to admit, I laughed pretty hard!

It was also posted on Tosh.0's Facebook page today. It's preeeetty painful to watch. I was a Rho Chi for two years, one on Panhellenic Exec., and I would have refused to rap!

Some people are going to make rude and ridiculous comments regardless. I thought it was very cute as well...especially being NPHC and not accustomed to seeing this.

I would love to say something positive but that video was pretty embarrassing on many levels. Perhaps these girls should have watched the Kappa's at Baylor do their Kappa Jam...it was cute Anyway, I would love to hear Anderson Cooper's take on this...where can I find it? Is there a link? Thanks ladies!!

I agree. I'm really surprised something like this came out of Alabama considering what a high profile sorority recruitment they have. I understand being funny and poking fun at yourself, but in order for it to come off well it has to be VERY well done done. This really misses the mark, IMHO. It just doesn't fit with the highly polished Alabama recruitment that is presented to the world.

That's the whole point.

Kind of like how the gorgeousest sorority at my school dressed up in overalls and farmer clothes for Meet the Greeks.

I get that. My point is that the execution was poor not the content. It could have been a great skit, but it was so poorly executed that it just made them look bad.
