I've never heard such things about DZ nor never seen anyone haranguing you for it.

The poster who PM'd you is either ridiculously inactive on GC or using a sockpuppet. Quite brave of her to hide behind another name for such an "old poster who never posts" anymore with her *12 posts* I'm so glad she's taking the "fall" and being "nice" with her diatribe. She also went back and delted her posts, she's down to 3 now and edited a 2005 post in March of 07.

She sounds like one of those people who think being in the "top three" at an SEC school is the only way to be Greek. And quite Classy of her to write you a long post about it.

Also, feel free to brag about your daughter as much as you would like. Bragging about one chapter on campus does not imply the rest of them suck. We all know you're a dad of a DZ, we expect to hear about DZ from you.

Stunned...

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,
DZRose

Considering the redundancyof that PM, the poster could have said everything she had to say in two paragraphs.

To me, she is the one who looks stupid.

BamaDad, don't sweat it. I'm a HowardMom and proud of my daughter's choice of sorority, too.

Regarding the comments about DZ in the PM..... I agree with DSTCHAOS.

But seriously.....BamaDad.... Dave....I value your opinions and appreciate your insight. But do you really have to announce that your daughter is a Delta Zeta at 'Bama in all of your posts? I think people here can appreciate you for you. PLENTY of people are not members of GLOs on this site.

If you want to be a member of GC, then be a member. But don't expect any sympathy because you received a PM that you didn't like.

Have your own identity and post away!

(Also, for safety and privacy reasons, I seriously wouldn't harp on the fact that your daughter is a Bama DZ.)

Hmmm...I don't remember him announcing his daughter like that. Then again, those DZ threads wore me out so I quit paying attention. But, if that's what he was doing, then I'm going to have to co-sign on your advice.
