It makes people say, "wow, those girls are really a closeknit group. They must not be as bad (weak) as I thought. I want what they have."
And, I apologize for letting the negative comments get to me so much that I chimed in...I usually just sit back and watch. I guess it just hit too close to home...

DITTO to a T. While alums are important, the school sees the chapter members and their actions. I think it's up to the chapter to be involved in order to turn around a bad reputation.
