Lovely ladies of AKA, I'm going to go ahead and say that you made the right choice in rejecting this woman. I have no idea exactly how the process works, but congrats for not giving in to her horrific sense of entitlement.

"Apparently, my destiny to be an AKA is not without challenges such as those Jason and his Argonauts faced. Just as the gods and Medea helped him, only time and divine intervention will lead the way to my sorority fate."

Also... WHAT??!?! Comparing your quest to be in a sorority to those other Greeks is just nuts. Nuts, I say.

A founding member of a chapter? Don't even get me started. Good luck, young lady, on your quest to become an AKA.

"Is it all about turning papers in on a date despite the date being vague- dates that forced an individual get everything needed done now or never- one time only?"

UM. YES! That's why they're called DEADLINES! lol. So she's mad because she didnt turn her papers in on time? GTFOHWTBS.

#Fail.

When I saw the part about her mother being a founder of the chapter, I yelled out loud. I'm a chapter founder, and if my daughter EVER carried herself with this sense of entitlement, there would be a chancla flying across the room!
lmao!

man what a load of crap. i felt so angry reading that horrible article. so i just skimmed.

i'm surprised that no one noticed how she called KAPsi the brother fraternity of APhiA.

This is my fave comment, for the simplicity AND the irony of it all:

Discretion is Key

Sigh....You're mom and Greek family members should have taught you about discretion...and the finer points of grammar.

If this Greenberry was a member of GC, and her letter was a thread, they would both be "Trainwreck of the Year, 2010"...

I found this admonishment about grammar to be especially ironic since the comment writer failed to show that he/she knew the difference between "you're" and "your." College edjumacations, people!

LOL at all of this but did you read the comments?

From Tristan:
Quote:
Your opinion is well taken and duly noted. However, I must admit that you sound like a bitter and rejected young woman. Yet, I applaud your efforts to defy the status quo and publish the thoughts that represent all those who didn't make it. Maybem, ohpefully, this will be a positive in the long run, or maybe you'll never be an AKA while an undergrad at AState.

What are excuses? Other than tools of incompetence, what else are excuses?(apparently your mother didn't tell you)

You say that you were misinformed, but as a leader in the greek community in another state, the story is the same. There is a reason why we don't give away membership into our BGLO's. Those who work hard and show earnest effort are typically smiled upon, so long as your actions aren't outrageous nor present liablility. Needless to say, "vague" deadlines don't exist. Your preparedness is on you, and no one else. So then, I ask, how prepared were you for this opportunity?

Just know that publicly bashing a greek organization for your own, personal short-comings is not reputable. It matters not how much "pink and green" you have in your closet and because your are a leagacy doesn't make you exempt from the rules of a difficult process. Everyone is held to the same high standard and someone from a socially lesser background as yourslef could earn membership if they present themselves worthy. Your name is worthless if you don't work toward your ambitions. Where I'm from, "exceptions are made for exceptional people," "and slack is for slackers."

Lastly, a good friend once told me that, "he's drinking from a well he ain't dig." I think it's time you stop riding the glory of your mother's acheivements and start diggin' a well of your own.

Peace and Blessings
