Back to the real subject at hand, I have a horror story!
There was a girl who pledged Sigma Kappa 2 or 3 years ago, and a couple days after bid day depledged. At our school we have Sigma Alpha, (a national ag sorority and member of our panhellenic, but not a member of npc) and she joined them during their recruitment that was a couple weeks after NPC. She just decided Sigma Alpha was more her style-no bigge, right?....
Fast forward to Greek Week this year, more specifically Greek Sing.
So the Sigma Alphas are on stage doing their song routine, and the lyrics towards everyone are a little meaner than in years past. We were thinking dang what's up with them, and also realized that they hadn't got to us yet. Then it happened. They started their little part about Sigma Kappa and that girl who pledged 2 or 3 years ago starts prancing around stage in our bid day shirt from when she pledged!!!!!!!!
We were all so mad and shocked that we didn't even really hear what they were saying at the time (and I still don't remember, but I don't think it was good...) Needless to say we were all very pissed, especially since we were nice and had been helping them out with recrutiment workshops because they are going to take part in panhellenic recruitment for the first time this year!! And we weren't mean to them in our song (actually we only had a couple not nice lines in the whole routine, but they were to the fraternity we did homecoming with and were totally deserved)! We think classy is better than cheap, and it was totally cheap that they wore our letters on stage!!!
So learn from our mistake of not taking back that girl's bid day shirt....you never know what people might do with them!!!!!
sidenote- Their little antics didn't help them out on winning. They probably got last place or close to it (it was low enough that they weren't mentioned when placings were announced). But we ended up getting second...goes to show that classy IS better than cheap!
