I do NOT judge Chi Omega - the chapter or the entire fraternity - because of one person's actions. Nor do I tar the university with the same brush, or the geographic area that is called the South. I venture to say that the majority of posters on this thread share my sentiments. Instead, I am extending my hand and heart in support. What can I do to help? What can I do to make a difference? The widest influence for good is what Theta asks of me, so I look to my immediate sphere of influence and that's where I start.

I find it problematic and puzzling that many people who consider themselves Christians are both judging and judgmental. I thought that was one of the main teachings of Jesus Christ - don't judge, forgive, turn the other cheek. Maybe I misunderstood.

Do not kid yourselves or feel superior (addressed to those for whom that shoe fits). It could just as easily have been a Theta, an AOII, a Tri Delta - name any other sorority. Alcohol plus sleep deprivation plus indiscriminate use of technology pluls a whole host of other factors = human failures.

Yes Mary Poppins I'm still tilting at windmills.

Chi O has been replying to posts on its FB page about the photoshopping. They are saying the image from TFM was not the original. It was altered, but the original had the same word in it. So it looks like the implication is that someone shopped the original to make it look like it was a bad shop job and imply the original said something different. Rather devious!

I looked at it, and the double g's do look a little different, but I don't know enough about pixels and resolution and spacing and such to know whether that has any basis in reality.

I'll reiterate what I said before - the ninja thing is hurtful too and she shouldn't have been posting that either and should have faced discipline for it. Obviously this is skyscraper vs. shack, but if she wouldn't have been bragging in the first place no one could have photoshopped it.
