Why Did You Decide to Join ...That?

Honestly:why did you join a GLO,why is it special and are you still glad you did?

Why did you join?

Why did you join?

Why did you become greek/choose the org you did?

Why did you choose your TYPE of GLO?

Why did you choose your sorority/fraternity?

But to answer the question, I pledged the fraternity that we exactly the right fit for me, where I could see the guys as my brothers and where what the fraternity stood for attracted me.

Red and white are our sorority colors, boggz is my pledge sister, and I told her about GC. When u click new posts it shows you all posts of the day and who the last person to post was. I saw boggzz so I read it to see if it was my boggzz and also the fact that her and I are in constant contact via im and phone I know when she's online. So if u want to say me and my best friend are suspicious sure go ahead.

I think this might be the school where pretty much all the local sororities have Disney characters or other similar things (like the Pink Panther) as mascots.

The main bad thing about it is the copyright infringement lawsuit potential.

My major gripe with the site is that it doesn't say what school this is at!!

Some ZTA chapters use Ariel because of the thing about our symbols being hidden in the Little Mermaid. But definitely has a high potential for copyright infringement. There's some other things I have to say about it but I think I'll leave that business to PMs

On the other hand, don't a lot of DG chapters use Raggedy Ann - I'm sure the copyright argument could be used there as well...

Whoa, Greek Pages back up???!!!

ETA: Wrong site

DG's official mascot is named Hannah, and is usually depicted as being similar to Raggedy Ann, but is not Raggedy Ann for copyright purposes. For this same reason, many ASA chapters stopped using the Raggedy Ann as our mascot.

Our official mascot is Hannah who has taken on the appearance of Raggedy Ann, but I think back in the day Hannah was more of a little blonde pig-tailed girl in a sailor outfit =]

But the difference is that the NPC sororities typically say Raggedy Ann is an "unofficial" mascot (ASA uses her too, don't they?). This group (Brooklyn College, btw, thanks, MC ) says that its mascot IS Ariel. I do wonder how the licensing people at Disney would view its unauthorized use for the last 17 years...

We still do, but just not as much as we used to.
