What I assumed was a mother posting about her daughter:

So my 18 years of talking about U of I worked, how come the talk about Alpha Gamma Delta didn't. She joined Kappa Kappa Gamma! It is right next door. Do you think she got the address mixed up?

Most have been some other U of I, because those buildings aren't even close here.

She probably means Illinois since Bid Day just happened for them IIRC.

I believe she was referring to the University of Illinois.

Checked out the promotional FB group for an upcoming sorority colony started by the colonization team for PR purposes (has info about the sorority, contact info for the national peeps involved, etc).

I saw this post from a girl (I'm going to assume she's a PNM) on the group's wall:

Hey XYZ girls, how's it going? I'm going to post my number on here if you guys want to hang out. I figure we all should since we're future sisters!

A national rep kindly commented on it stating that colony recruitment hasn't started yet and that being in the FB group doesn't = being a member.

Oops.

Everytime I see someone post on Facebook that they are a Baby Hooter, I think of, well...you know...pre-teen Hooter-girls.

First thing that came up:

"I just shat on the floor. Happy GVSU Panhellenic Sorority Recruitment! I smell like death!"

LOL

Chi O's I know call them baby hoots...which is way less disconcerting.

I don't know if the Chi Omegas at my school used 'hootie', but I think it sounds cute.

My chapter occasionally called new members 'baby turtles', which isn't horrible but I've never been a huge fan of the 'baby x' terms.

Family members need to watch their FB statuses too. Last year in my community, there was a girl who was going through recruitment and was extremely disappointed when a particular chapter cut her. Well, her younger sister got on FB and completely trashed the sorority. Did it get back to them? I don't know for sure, but I do know it got back to a neighbor who had been a member of the chapter and written a rec for the sister rushing. It also got to a girl who was a member of another sorority because she's the one who told the neighbor about it.

This year, the younger sister who did the trashing is going through recruitment at the same school! I wonder just how far news of that FB rant traveled, and if it is going to come back and bite her?
