Casey can be too harsh on others.

Does anyone know what sorority ZBZ is being based on? I'm picking up some Tri Delt characteristics, like snapping fingers to agree w/someone in a mtg, wearing pearls w/every outfit even sweatshirts, and mostly - in the flashback where Frannie is reading a letter to Casey in the big/little, she quotes their founder saying something like 'Steadfast in our love and friendship' as their motto - Tri Delt's is 'Steadfastly love one another'....so close.

I just don't get why there's a need for any speculation as to who ZBZ is being based on. My guess is that the show's writers are trying their best NOT to have anything resemble an existing sorority's symbols/mottos/etc.

I really must applaud the show's writers because based from what I've seen so far they really did research -- from the skits to the big/little revealing to risk management policies...pretty impressive.

I know that most dramas on ABC Family don't have a long shelf life, so I'm curious to see how long they'll let this one last. Based on "the Greek Ball incident that happened 2 years ago" Cappie/Casey/Evan are all Juniors, right?
