I'm really not trying to be snarky -- you asked for honest opinions, so here goes.

Get someone who knows what he or she is doing to proof-read and edit everything that goes onto the website. Bad grammar and poor writing don't make a sorority of college women look particularly good. Just the title of this thread and the short opening post repeatedly use apostrophes incorrectly -- a pattern I also see on your "Join Delta Phi Nu" page. (For example, "What about legacy's or Recommendations? - During Recruitment we do not consider legacy's or recommendations. Every girl is considered on a non-bias system." The word is "legacies," not "legacy's.")

Sorry, but when I see writing like is on the webpage, I don't get a very positive image of the group.

ACTIVITIES.
BARBECUES.
BEACH DAYS.
IDEAS.


Sorry, but I just can't deal with this anymore. Are they teaching in schools that if it's a vowel or a vowel sound, you should use an apostrophe to make a plural?

Thank you. The English/Journalism major in me wanted to red pen my screen.
