This really lifted my spirits. Thanks for sharing, and very proud of the GPhis who stepped up and did the amazing.

Maybe this explains why there was not a single Gamma Phi Beta in attendance to hear NPC Chairman, Jean Mrasek, speak at UTC on Sunday at 3:00 p.m.

Seriously? A very positive story was shared, and you have to chime in with this?
Did you have a secret handshake at the door to check the membership of those in attendance?

Each group was asked to stand and "throw what they know" -- Jean called out all 26 groups, so even alums from chapters not at UTC could be recognized. It was a wonderful event. I'm sorry they missed it.

You missed the point. Again.
Back to the topic: excited to see true NPC spirit shown by the GPhi actives, in ACTION, helping another Panhell sister spread the widest influence for good, regardless of the letters.
ETA: this is NOT about Chi Omega, in case you didn't know. Oh wait. Who cares?

Wait, they chose to support their ZTA Panhellenic sisters and that is bad because they didn't support their ChiO Panhellenic sisters?
Going to a speaker isn't everyone's cup of tea. Being indoors on a beautiful fall day may not be what everyone wants to do. It doesn't make them lesser individuals because they didn't support something that you deem important. It also doesn't mean that they weren't impressed that the NPC chairwoman was in town.
Perhaps they enjoyed the Panhellenic spirit of helping out the ZTAs and getting the opportunity to show love, support, and encouragement to women (and men) who have faced this disease? Maybe they saw a NEED and put those needs in front of their own personal wishes, which perhaps could have been to attend the event? Maybe they value service and philanthropy and prefer to live their ritual in that manner?
Take off your red and yellow glasses and enjoy the beautiful world that exists beyond. Your comment was snitty, utterly rude, and had no place in this thread which was complimenting that group of young women- young women who understand much more about Panhellenic spirit than you demonstrated with your post.

Listen to a speaker . . . or live our creed.
My sisters made the right choice. They chose character over appearances.
It's a shame you won't live your symphony. What an utterly catty, tacky, SNOBBY, self-absorbed comment. But, I guess that's par for the course.
