^^^yeah, I didn't read it as sarcasm at all, I just thought she was really judgemental. Like, yeah, don't wear that for rush or whatever, but it just seemed kindof snippy, but maybe now that you said that, yeah I see it, if she had a sarcastic kind of personality

A non-greek woman I work with was showing around/ sharing her Greek daughter's recruitment instructions at work a couple of years ago, and she was blowing comments way out of proportions. The mom fancies herself a big feminist and has no understanding of the realities of UGA recruitment. She apparently didn't care that she as damaging the reputation of her daughter's group for basically doing what's expected in competitive recruitments: giving guidelines about what to wear and how to wear it to maximize the positive impression your group makes.

I think there maybe something to clearly communicating expectations face to face and not giving people lists like this is reproducible format. Especially if you are going a presentation at chapter first and have dress check later, why run the risk of it getting outside the chapter?

I thought this particular linked list was pretty funny, and I thought it was refreshing to see the author acknowledge that some of the rules represented her own areas of obsession rather than universal judgments.
