Please, please, please STOP this "top tier" thinking. It does nothing but hurt in many ways. Every group has things to offer, every sorority has a sisterhood that they treasure. That is what matters.

Very true words... almost every organization has a chapter at a school where they are doing extrememly well, and a chapter at a differnet school where they might be struggling. "Tiers" mean nothing once you graduate, and you are an alumna SIGNIFICANTLY longer than you are a collegian.

It will especially hurt her daughter's recruitment if she's using "top tier" when talking about chapters with her. It's bad enough that the PNMs all gossip about such silly/irrelevant things, but when parents do the same, the PNM will most likely put an even larger emphasis on them, when it really doesn't matter.
