Eliminating Bigs and Littles?

[Buttonz]

My chapter only gave gifts at intiation. IT was supposed to be a pillow & a set of letters from the big. Often, the big would give more...a lto more, if they could afford it. I can remeber at least one semster where the rule was put in palce if you give anything more then one set of letters a nd a pilliow, it had to be done in private, because there were a few of us there were able to spend more/spent mroe even fi they couldn't afford it (got to love credit cards!), and they didn't want anyone else feeling bad. It semeed to work pretty well.

I'll admit to being one of those girls who over spent on her litte, part of htat reasoning being she started her NM program the semster before, dropepd due to personal reasons, and the Friday before we were about to start our NM program I got a call from a girl that worked with her telling me that she decided to come back and re-go through the NM program (she wasn't sure about it, because she wasn't sure if she would be able to and didn't want to drop again) and finished it, and I was so proud of her for coming back, that I spoiled her.
