I know this was posted a couple of times on the other thread but I'll go ahead and say this again:
I get the feeling that a lot of next years freshman are going to be wary of going DZ due to this situation. DZ just made it worse for themselves (although, really, I didn't think they were able to). If this starts to affect numbers everywhere for DZ and you see chapters starting to close, this will be a huge lost for DZ. #'s go down, 3 of chapters go down. Simple?

Those of you who are DZs, how do you feel about this?

Weird, weird, weird. One of the things Delta Zeta is seeking is for DePauw to state that the group didn't make any decisions based on appearance or race.
How could DePauw know how Delta Zeta made its membership decisions?
Different topic:
"Kevin O'Neill, an attorney with Patton Boggs in Washington, D.C., who has been consulting with Delta Zeta officials but did not file the lawsuit. If punitive damages are awarded, he said, the sorority plans to reinvest that money into self-esteem programming for women at DePauw and re-establishing their chapter."
Snort.
I don't claim to know how the group or the university made their decisions in the past, but really, self-esteem programming?

Reason: clarifying transition, I hope.

So does this mean that the members were given alumna status, not because of their apperance or race, but because they had low-self esteem?

Programming? They're people, not computers!
