PCness...

I know inclusiveness is very PC... and that's great. For most of us (including myself) that is the route I think is best. But let's take another PC attitude that we often forget when we push other PC rules upon people TOLERANCE.

By this I mean that we preach tolerance and acceptance of OUR ideas but if someone else has an idea that clashes with ours we are sometimes a bit too quick to get after them about it.

My feeling is that the greek community is different for everyone. If someone joined a sorority to be involved in the Greek system and to be with people they could truly identify with what's the harm in that? Furthermore, what the hell business of mine is it as long as they aren't hurting anyone?

We forget sometimes that GLO's are by their very nature selective. Be honest with me here... we cut people in rush for physical flaws (we don't like the way they look), personality flaws that we've had 5 minutes to jump to the conclusion about, etc.. If we find something like culture that unites us then I think that person is going to stand a hell of a better chance of joining.

So while you may think this is wrong it's not your GLO. It's not exactly our place to criticize these people. We should learn to be tolerant of other viewpoints and move on.
