Aside from that, none of this advice is new.

I didn't say what is/isn't acceptable. I said unbecoming. Totally different.

You're right, none of it is new but bears repeating. And usually when someone says something like "can't we all just get along?" There's even more of a dog pile.

"Your GLO would not be happy" = "This is unacceptable behavior in your GLO"

Anyway, this thread will undoubtedly turn into a trainwreck, but I get what you're trying to say.

Fair enough. "Your GLO would not be happy" was in reference to you (not you personally of course) becoming a headline in cyber-bullying tragedy. I'm not sure I can name one GLO who would be happy about that. But then again, I'm not familiar with the ins and outs of them all, so I will retract that blanket statement.

I hope it doesn't become a trainwreck. Really. I just think that GC is too valuable a resource for us all to not be nice to each other and generally helpful. If the consensus is that I belong in Rainbow-Brite-Unicorn-Poopy-Strawberry-Shortcake-Land, well then so be it.

Unless you're privvy to the workings of EVERY GLO, you honestly can't say what would or would not make them happy. And what do you consider "the GLO"? The national council? Your chapter? The alumnae? The founders? Who? I mean, some of our founders would really not be jazzed that people of color are wearing their letters.
