Getting a new perspective

been thinking about louloulee's situation. the other thread is not showing up...so i'm sharing this with you guys to see if we can collectively overlook the madness, and perhaps do something positive.

consider this:

is it more productive to join a sorority that is perceived as weaker and focus on making it stronger, or to start a new organization with a "clean slate" (no history), and try to build that one from the ground up? Is the former a more viable option, and maybe a better focus for her at this point?

A very wise GCer reminded me that we were all 18-19-20 once, and my panhellenic lens wasn't that finely focused at that age. Thank you to She Who Shall Remain Nameless...and i owe you one. You know who you are.

IMO I'd get a group of friends to join the existing sorority...I've seen reputations soar and crash in a matter of a few years. It takes work and a dedicated alum group to boot, but it happens. The existing sorority needs to identify their "target" nms...and develop their "brand".
