I don't get it...that sister was obviously worthy enough to be admitted to membership. Like it or not, she's part of the face of the sorority, even if the face has a stud in it. Shouldn't we be showing PNM's the real sorority, not some whitewashed version of it?
Now, if we're talking about girls who get really anxious about having to talk to strangers or make a mean cheese cake, surely they can be re-assigned to support tasks because, hey, someone's gotta do it. But relegating a girl because she's got a piercing or a tattoo? Doesn't sit right with me. She's good enough to wear letters the other 51 weeks out of the year...my thing is I worry about this going further into issues of weight and appearance, which is counter productive to the goals of building women's self confidence and teamwork.
