According to irishpipes' BORT (Big Ole Recruitment Thread), the chapter closed in 1998, and reopened in 2007.

Wow... that article is sad and pathetic.

In looking at the Alpha Phi OU website, they look to be a group of beautiful and diverse women... nothing suggests what this so-called "journalist" says about them.

Some people just never will understand sisterhood... and that makes me sad.

I don't support the article, but I understand how recruitment could be a catalyst for wanting out of the system.

I think it comes across here when we touch on the more superficial aspects of recruitment that there are some aspects of how we pick members that might not 100% line up with what we'd define as a perfect sisterhood. If those unpleasant parts became defining for the way you viewed your own group, I can see how it would be hard to continue and how you might want to indict the whole system rather than admit that you bought into it.

But writing the article is just a jerk move.
