It's funny because this conversation tends to happen every year:

Older Sorority Member: Did you have fun at XYZ last night?
New Freshman Sorority Member: Oh yeah and I met this really awesome guy. Do you know him? His name's Bob.
Older Member: FYI hun, Bob is 30.
New Freshman Sorority Member: Ewwww.

Yup, sure enough. Usually during fraternity rush week or around Halloween...

There was an interesting thread here last fall about an "older" woman who was interested in pledging. I personally thought she was nuts but the non-traditional campus thing was brought up so I kept my opinions to myself. She did end up pledging and it seemed that it was working out just fine.

I got married old so I have as big a problem wrapping my mind around being married and in college as married and in a sorority. But one thing GC has taught me is Greek systems and personal experiences vary WIDELY and making judgments about "normal" or "acceptable" is just an invitation for disaster or ridicule.

Swerving on my own post: one of my biggest peeves in the world is "prices may vary." Is there a chance that every store WILL have the same price? Then prices WILL vary, not may.

Actually, this makes sense.

"Super Tampax 40% off this week at Target. Prices may vary."

Target (or rather the company making up their ads in tandem with the legal dept) has no idea what every single one of its stores charges for Super Tampax. It could be that somehow, every single store is charging the same thing. But they don't know that. Hence, "prices may vary."
