I also have a short temper, personally, with women who want to resign as seniors. I think it sucks to be like "oh, I went to all these mixers, made all these friends, loved my chapter for three years, and now that I am a senior, well, what's in it for me?"
We had one of those a few years back, and now I have to sit by her mother at work.....what a joy.

As an advisor, and a mother of two active members, I am concerned with the time demands placed on the current greek communities. The amount of money expected to be raised for charity is getting to be outrageous. Add to that the need to support all your fellow greeks' fund raisers. Then there are the community service hours, and we want you all to be leaders on campus, but don't forget your GPA! Have you had enough sisterhood events, and non-alcs?

Then there are the money woes. Although starting salaries are about 3x higher between my years and my son's, tuition is 10X, but when can a student work any hours between all the commitments?

And am proud that my two have never had any questions about resigning, but I do worry about the women I advise.

As for women in the early '70's not resigning.....instead many dropped out of college to get married based on an alumnae newsletter from our archives I recall reading when I was in school.
