When "cleaning it up" I assume that means check the cursing, check the alcohol references, etc?

My personality and sense of humor really shines through Twitter particularly, and I'm sort of worried about it being misunderstood on some level.

Do locked accounts raise a red flag or should I be forthcoming?

If you're an upperclassman, the horse is probably already out of the barn. Even if you scrubbed everything to the point that you looked like a nun to the national sorority volunteers doing the colonization, there would still be a chapter full of people younger than you who may know you through one venue or another.

Also, be aware that if you do get a bid, you may be told what you are and aren't allowed to do on social media.

If this is indeed true, why would you want to hide it? Wouldn't that just result in having to hide your personality the entire time you are a collegian in your sorority?

DURING recruitment?
No, they're way too busy. However, some may.
BEFORE recruitment, absolutely.

I think it's honestly just nerves that's making me over think this. You're absolutely right, because I shouldn't have to pretend, but the unreliability of text interpretations as opposed to conversation makes me a little nervous!

Overall, I'm pretty sure I'm in the clear! I don't like offensive humor and I'm trying to cut back on my sailor mouth, so hopefully by September I'll be in my prime.
