I hope that the paper publishes an apology. They could have just as easily not used that line about Phi Mu, it contributed nothing to the article.

No offense to DG, but seriously there are 15 other chapters on the UF campus and the article primarily focused on them. Heck, most of the pics were DG as well.

I don't know I guess for me, if a newspaper is going to focus on recruitment, don't focus on one house then naming "stereotypes" of like 4 others.

IMPO while the article was "well meaning" it was in bad taste.

the absence of more chapters being represented in the article could be because many of the national offices do not want their members "winging" an interview and possibly misrepresenting the sorority. i know zeta feels that way-i was surprised to see a zeta quoted. i would be surprised if her comments were authorized, or if she even knew to get permission before she spoke.

I wondered the same thing when I was reading this. Did all of these women have permission from their National Headquarters to speak for their sororities? Somehow, I doubt it.
