No point. It will never be read. Most of them are fairly common sense any way.

I mean, I can see how someone brand new to Greek life may not know to not ask about reputations, or won't know that no one can tell them their chances of getting a bid. Those things aren't necessarily common sense if you know nothing about fraternities and sororities. There shoud be a page when people register that says in giant letters to not ask things like that  . Haha.

Announcement: I, AzTheta, am Mean and Evil. Yes, this is true, because a pretty precious snowflake princess told me so. I also am powerful enough to ruin peoples' entire lives and singlehandedly wreck everything for everyone.
Consequently, I claim all rights to Chairman of Mean and Evil. I will now handle it all for GC. I've got this covered. You all can go get manicures or something of the sort.
Send letters of appreciation and checks in my honor to your favorite GLO philanthropy. As a Mean and Evil person, I do not need funding or kudos.
in case there is any doubt:

You might not need funding or kudos, but every good Chairman of Mean and Evil needs minions and maybe a sycophant or two.... consider me signed up.

No offense to you Oh Great Leader, but I feel like the level of meanness have been lowered after reading the OP's thread. Could we raise the standards please?

I read your thread. No one was especially snippy or mean. You got some good advice.
If you are not getting what you need here, you might want to check out the NPC RecruitmentPrep site:

This is exactly what I posted about. Granted, mine had a higher word count. To the OP, don't let these board sway your judgement of Greek Life. For as many Debby Downers you will meet on boards like these, you will find twice as many nice and wonderful girls in Greek Life at your school. Some people are bitter and having a public arena where they can take out that bitterness without anyone knowing who they are.

I had to go back and look at your thread, because what? Apparently, I didn't care then and I don't care now.

Agreed, also, who's angry? What is this nonsense?

I'm angry. I had forgotten about the Tide pods I bought at the store, and left them in the car. All day. Evidently, when subjected to hot temperatures, they melt. And of course, the container they were in was resting on its side, and all the melted pods leaked out of the container and onto the floor of my car. And yes, I'M ANGRY. Grrrrr...
At least it's a good-smelling mess.

CONSUMER ALERT! Does the packaging have any warning, or is a letter to the company in order? Now I'm letting my extended family know about this, they do a lot of wash with three young boys...
