To judge a sorority based on the reputation it has, the amount of members in the chapter, and how long it has been around IS shallow.

Hahahaha!!!

I just remembered something that happened my last year at school during recruitment. The pamphlet that was given to all the PNM's had pictures of all the Rho Gamma's. One of the Rho Gamma's was just a real sweetheart but in the picture, she was wearing a cute shirt that said D&G. Some poor PNM's from her group suicided Delta Gamma because they wanted to so badly be her sister but it turns out she was a Tri Delta. Talk about jumping to conclusions. She was just wearing her Dolce & Gabbana shirt.

ETA: I am happy to report that both girls stayed in DG and were happy with their collegiate experience.

She wasn't judging the sorority at all, she was simply commenting that others were likely to judge them. Stating that others are likely to be shallow does not make you shallow. She was stating what she felt was likely to happen.

Recognizing how something works isn't the same as liking how it works or agreeing with it.
