I can't even begin to express how I feel about that post. I really am nearly speechless. While I try to write off people like this, the fact that this person went to this amount of effort is remarkable and even though I know that there is no foundation in ANYTHING she has said, it is extremely hurtful to read it and know there are probably others out there who believe it as well. How sad it must be for her to feel like this would have had any kind of positive impact, like there was some "great secret" no one was telling you. Apparently she didn't tell the over 180,000 collegiate and alumnae members of Delta Zeta either. I can only imagine what they would say to her should they read what she said and have an opportunity to meet her on the street.
While everyone on GC has their own opinion about what has happened at DePauw, not once have I read about any of them asserting that this was a sorority-wide issue. In fact, most posts have made an effort to point out that this was a relatively isolated incident and that to apply it to Delta Zeta as a whole would be wrong. For this person to go out of her way to disrespect an entire sorority and state things that are completely false is beyond me.
I am thrilled that your daughter is my sister. I am thrilled about ALL of my sisters regardless of where they were members or what they look like.
Thank you for supporting the sorority your daughter loves so much...
In the Flame,
