Wow, it seems weird to read the old rush threads where the actual sorority names are mentioned!

I didn't read the thread originally, but since the OP doesn't seem to be around anymore, I'll say this:
We only read her side of the story.
We have no idea what actually went on at Chi Omega. We have no idea what actually happened with the Hooters thing and how others perceived it. She may have thought it was harmless, but apparently others did not.
We only read her side.
Just a thought.

I personally find the language she uses to talk about the other woman more offensive than posing in a Hooters t-shirt.

It was interesting to read that the chapters at UF now have similar sizes. Things certainly change over time. I was shocked to find out, several years ago, that a certain sorority at the University of Miami is struggling with a negative reputation. Back in the day (I did not pledge due to being quite poor, lol) when I attended UMiami that particular sorority was the place to be and now it's the total opposite. Things do change.
I was not so surprised by Molly's choice of words when referring to the Ice Queen. A post above made a good point that we are reading things through the eyes of young people.
I wonder if Molly stayed active with Kappa for her entire time at UF.

Didn't she pledge the same year that curlygirly did? Some people here know how to reach her.

I actually find it refreshing.
My feeling is, if you are posting your recruitment story non-live you should be able to use the names. Yes you should have some tact, but I think 99% of us here on GC understand that we are reading the POV of an 18-20 year old.
