lol--I think it depends on what you see in the person and how generous you're feeling today. I'm leery of those whose interest appears to be superficial.

I would say that some are ignorant & need a little guidance on how to express interest. I was one of those, but I also didn't know about gc. There is a lot of useful information in this forum if posters will utilize it.

I try to be generous, really I do. I like this thread. But locking it really would not allow full expression on one's perception of our Sorority... Some people would say "given enough rope..."

To be honest, I really don't care if an interest is superficial. I think that can be appropriately examined. I also think "loose lips sink ships..."

As far as ignorance about expressing interest, I have seen craziness and entire processes have had to shutdown for inappropriate behavior, especially on the internet--especially on Facebook pages and possibly Twitter. This information is of course all on AKA1908.com.

We all falter due to our eagerness prior to an invitation toward membership, but I have seen public correction made by Directorate sorority sisters and expulsions due to that overexuberance, which actually looks like a stalker who would risk all to become members... Let's just say I disagree with anything crying out... I am all about simplicity and respect.

And you are right, plenty of information can be found just by doing a search--specificity is key to that search! And commentary must be refrained.
