Well, say what you will, but sisters like Ann Coulter and Nancy Grace have certainly achieved a level of success in their field. So whether or not you like them, that achievement is worthy of recognition. It's nice to know you share a bond with certain women of achievement - but I don't think anyone joins a GLO because of the alumni.

First, Ann Coulter is vapid--this has nothing to do with her politics--she wouldn't know logic if it hit her upside the head.

Second, of course we join because of alumni, just not necessarily the "famous" ones.

How about being the mother of not one...but TWO Superbowl winning team MVP quarterbacks?

Payton and Eli Manning's mom, Olivia, was a Delta Gamma at Ole' Miss U.

I think they should mention her .

Well, we have alumnae to thank for our groups, but NPC recruitment is such that you are joining the chapter based on the actives.

And don't football players always say "Hi Mom!" when the camera is pointed at them?

That's interesting-I didn't even realize Nancy Grace was a member of a GLO. I'm pretty sure Ann Coulter is a Delta Gamma but, do you know what org. Nancy Grace is a member of?

Nancy Grace is a Macon Magnolia...a member of our "sibling", Alpha Delta Pi.
