On a related note..
I had an interesting experience in class this afternoon, but first a little backstory.
I drink a lot of water, but I'm too cheap to buy bottled water. So I usually have a tumbler with me that I refill from the water coolers in my department. Today, I packed my "I (heart) AF tumbler and was drinking from it in class. During a break from class, one of my classmates -- who I also consider a friend -- asked me if the tumbler belonged to me or if I got it for free and was just using it. I told her it was mine, and that I got it at a sorority conference. She looked at me and said, completely surprised, "You're in a sorority?" I couldn't tell from her tone of voice was surprise that someone like me was in a sorority, or that someone she likes and respects would be in a sorority.
It just goes to show you that we really do have a long way to go toward dispelling sorority stereotypes.
