When you post what city your university is in, mention the time of year of your recruitment, and then post how many chapters there are, you have outed yourself. Plain and simple.

This is so true. Some people don't understand the concept of DISCRETION.

I would have a little more sympathy for her had she not made an incredibly rude remark about one of the chapters. Recognizing that a house is not for you is one thing. Being rude during a recruitment party and then making disparaging comments about its members on a public internet board... totally different story.

Agreed 10000%. There is absolutely no excuse for being rude at a recruitment party and then making mean comments about them like that.

This is so ridiculous how the "brutally honest" retro thread posters think it's OK to behave that way just because recruitment is already over.

I wasn't trying to be hateful-I assumed everyone else picked up on the school. I'm sorry. Even though my GLO does very well at that school, I still don't like the way she talked about other chapters....Had she said GOOD stuff throughout the post about each chapter-I would not have felt the need to question whether or not it was Drexel. Next time, I will keep to myself but, it was mentioned on here that she pretty much outted herself. Ooops!

FWIW, my post wasn't directed at you, it was directed at the OP.

It doesn't take a rocket scientist to figure things out like schools, groups, whatever. People posting threads need to use discretion (i.e. not put info that can identify them, their school, whatever).

I think it's awful that the OP thinks she can talk shizz about any chapters the way she did. It is just a common theme in the same old "retro" threads because they want to be "brutally honest" (You have NO idea how run down that phrase is around here!). They think since it's over they can be classless and say rude things because they already have a membership to some other chapter.
