Please don't act like college kids are all about high tea and crumpets and expect them to act accordingly at all times, especially when they are communicating in-house.

This is, of course, a lesson about digital communication lost on a lot of our active members who often don't realize both the permanence of anything they write online (God help me if I ever run for office with all of my posts in the politics forum) and the speed at which it can be disseminated.
Calling each other "cunts" and "retards" is not motivation...

Yeah, Jezebel/Gawker folks have done quite a bit of digging and found a lot of offensive stuff.
You have to give her this... she is clearly an equal opportunity racist. There is hardly a group that she did not hit with these disgusting comments. Her parents must be so proud.

Looking through those comments, I can honesty see why she deleted the twitter. This one seems to come off as making not much sense at all to me. If you go to that school why would you openly make comments like that. Especially being a represenative for your sorority when there are several Jewish GLOs on the campus (1 fraternity and 3 historically jewish sororities)

Neither of us has any insight into what that chapter's internal communication looked like before.

Hah, I was thinking the same thing. Shit gets real during Greek Week.

And chapter culture or not, I'm judging the fack out of her for most of those slurs.

Dang, GC, I spend ... way too much time ... digging through my old harddrive and flashdrives to find my old password and user name files so I can sign back in here, and there's only 3 pages in this thread?? I'm disappointed, not gonna lie.

More disturbing, however, is I see an ad on the lefthand side of the page for a company named "Uranus Greek Lettering". Really? Someone let that happen?

I second/third/fourth the idea that I'm over the moon that the Internet was in it's infancy when I was a collegiate. This girl fancies herself a foul mouthed comedienne which I'm sure explains her off color missive. You can tell by her wannabe Tosh.0 twitter posts. I get her point, though she and many other collegiates like her haven't figured out that once you hit send, you can never get those embarrassing words back. Those chapter list serves are not that private. Incriminating emails have been the downfall of more than one chapter with regard to risk management and PR. I do say shame to the sister that released the email...not for standing up to her but for doing it in a way that shames DG. Uncalled for.

P.S. oMG..someone at DG UMD shut down your moon fruit page for god's sake!

Are you sure that is her twitter? Her twitter name is Rebecca, but in the letter she refers to herself as Julia.

"Julia" is a fake name that Gawker used to make readabllity easier.

And except for the cussing and slurs...SHE'S 100% IN THE RIGHT. If you're going to be a bump on a log at events, stay home. If you're at any sort of fraternity pairing, you don't talk about other fraternities. If you honestly say things like "I'm too sober to talk to guys" then you are pretty pathetic.

I'm fairly sure that this exact attitude is being disseminated at chapters across the country as we speak.
