Facebook During Rush

[Canadian AOII]

I'm not gonna lie, I have to disagree w/ a few ppl on the whole Facebook issue!

Yeah, definitely make your account private and change your name and hide your clubs but I'm sorry, deactivate the whole account that someone has had for X amount of time just cuz of being a recruitment counsellor for all of two weeks or whatever?

While keeping a counsellor's affiliation under wraps is important, I think it's excessive to expect people to rearrange all their stuff (like online w/ Facebook, LiveJournal, Webshots and whatever) just for a short period of disaffiliation.

I know to those who eat, sleep & breathe greek life (even if they graduated like 20 years ago) this is HUGE to them but I think the rest of us do have a life outside of the greek scene and it doesn't reign supreme and supercede everything else we may be doing (online, offline or whatever).

Personally, my position on Panhel and other 'sorority matters' aren't 'priority' over the rest of my life as an individual and I'm not about to rearrange my whole life (and NO i'm not saying that Facebook is my life, but I'm not going to rearrange everything I may be involved in) b/c some sketchbag PNM wants to know what sorority I'm in.

Besides, what kind of sketchy PNM has time to stalk down every recruitment counsellor through all of their online affiliations just to find out their affiliation?! If they really want to trace me that badly go ahead, they'll likely find out either way if they're that determined (and bored).

Just a respectful agree to disagree.
