I would be in favor of PNAIs posting the name of the sorority. I would be in favor of you posting your sorority of choice.

I don't understand how a "sticky" would ensure that information is accurate.

In my opinion, this is where things really start to go downhill for you. You obviously believe that your reasons for wanting to AI are the "right" reasons. But really, AI is not a mutual selection process. It is the GLO's reasons that are assessed, not the PNAI's. I don't intend for that to sound offensive - really, I don't. AI is not intended to be fair or unfair. The GLO decides who they want or need and if the woman accepts it is a go. The PNAI really is virtually powerless except for the obvious ability to go along with the process, decline, or accept. That is why AI is a tougher reality than collegiate recruitment, where there is more of a mutual selection. (Although it is still heavily weighted on the GLO's side, in my opinion.)

Keep in mind that this is a greek messageboard. Whether ladies are pro or anti-AI, they are actually members of Greek Letter Organizations. I have no problem with non-greeks posting here, but to restrict a greek forum and allow non-greeks (PNAIs) to post and not actual greeks seems a bit off.
