Your thoughts on AI: discussion goes here.

Dang.

I go to work, and I miss like 6 pages of AI-fun!

My general thoughts on today's posts and a summary in case anyone else's place of employment blocks out GC Fun:


* ba - if you paperwork stalled after it had already begun, the questions should be directed to the Alum. Chapter involved. Not random strangers on the internet who may or may not know how your sorority does AI.

*While this board is not encouraging swarms and swarms of AI, I would go back and read all the AI threads. Count how many AI's said "I have never thought of AI until now!" Count how many AIs there are because their local affiliated, or they were involved with the collegiate chapter, or they knew someone in the alum chapter already. Now make those numbers a ratio. There's your sign.

*As PT noted, ritual is also a part of church, Masonic organizations, etc.

*AI is NOT recruitment

* I had a difficult major, and I still worked almost 40 hrs/wk, paid my way through college AND all my sorority expenses, still went to class, got all my homework done, and had time for socials with the boys on Fraternity Row. It can be done. People do it every year. It's called time management.

* If you choose to attend a SEC school you need to know that you may or may not become greek due to it's competitiveness. If you can't handle that and being greek means the world to you, go to a less competitive school and be over it. Being greek is not the end of the world. I've never been to a SEC campus but they sure look like a lot of fun. I'm sure non-greeks have a great social life just as the greeks do.

* I don't know about anyone else, but I don't wake up every morning and think "Gosh, I need to fill my daily quota of finding a great, unaffiliated woman to join my sisterhood!" If there is someone I know very well, and I think she is an outstanding individual, I will let my AA know. I don't let it consume my day, because.. well, I'm at WORK.

* Let's lay off the report button

* adpiucf is awesome

* copied from adpiucf: Please stop implying that you know better for our organizations and what we should be doing. The fact remains that we don't, and we won't until our membership votes otherwise.

* I hate to bring it up, but seriously. I'm beginning to wonder why Adelphean is so gung-ho about the AI forum when she posted that she wished the sorority didn't even do AI to begin with. While AI is very rare within the sorority, I still think it's an NPC-wide issue that should not be on GC.

* AI is not recruitment

* AI is not an open event

* Anyone can post in the AI forum. It is not your call to decide who can/can't post here

* Also it's not that we're "ANTI-AI" we're "ANTI-SORORITY SHOPPING" and "ANTI- putting information on the intraweb that shouldn't be out there"

* I wonder if any of the salons have sent me email replies?
