I think this is supposed to be satire. Bless her heart.*

*Did I do that right, Southerners?

Well played, y'all.
The fact that there are a lot of people who think this article is serious proves this is a big pile of stinking satire fail.

I was hopeful that it would turn out also to be a satirical, fictionalized persona as well, but alas, no. There's a real DG member listed by that name on their webpage. Maybe she was deliberately playing up the sorority stereotypes with her letters in the photo for the sake of irony? Maybe? Pretty please that she at least intended all this and won't be blindsided by her own foolishness?
I think it's normal that college sophomores write bad satire or even write/say silly things sincerely that will embarrasses them later. I know I did (and continue to, decades after I quit being a college sophomore)
It's a bummer that this ends up with large an audience. I will continue to hope the writer was prepared for the response.

Just because it's a real person doesn't mean it's not satire.
IMO, it screamed satire, but that's just me.
Ditto some of the other points. I hope she realizes that the internet = forever, and that potential employers may see this and think WTF later.

Oh, yeah, I get that, but I meant that in addition to being (I hope) a satire, I hoped that the writer hadn't dragged her real letters into it.
