If the OP would have said "why would a school schedule a social with two sororities?" then the first paragraph of ComradesTrue's post would have been an easy answer.

Your comment on (paraphrasing) the utter freakishness of a school scheduling GLO socials is what sent the thread off the rails in the first place.
Dr. Phil was correct - it's all 33girl's fault. My first post was #2 - first one after the OP. The next post to even mention it was #8 by aephi_alum as the last line in her post, sort of an after thought to her prime topic. The next time it was mentioned was post #11 BY YOU! You have such a narrow worldview that it's like trying to explain the Great Vowel Shift to a 3 year old.

Oh for crying out loud in a bucket. I was speaking to the subject of the original post (I was unaware that was wrong), and that has nothing to do with my "worldview." He's probably run screaming and vowed never to participate in anything involving sororities again considering a funny aside turned into this mess.

This is just comical now. Are you really THAT upset over this thread?

The school gets confused about which GLO is which, regardless of who's supposed to be socializing with whom.

The end.

For "social" I read "mixer". *puts on dunce cap*

I'm still curious as to why the school was setting up these socials - regardless of whether they intended to set up a mixer with two opposite-sex groups or a social event with two same-sex groups.

The confusion between AEPi and AEPhi strikes a particular chord with me (as an AEPhi) ... when we first became an AEPhi colony, random people kept coming up to us and asking when AEPi had gone coed (fraternities going coed at my school is not without precedent), or were we some kind of little sister group for AEPi, or what. I've said it before ... you'd think that people at arguably the top science and engineering school in the world would be able to tell the difference between pi and phi. But I digress.

Huh? Why? No, nevermind...

This is pointless.

OP Here...

Just woke up from a dream about a semi-post apocalyptic college life to find semi-post apocalyptic greekchat... I've been sick the last couple of days so I hadn't come back to the thread...

The original post was intended as the school is clueless enough to get its greek letters confused as to what is a fraternity and what is a sorority and thus *humorously* gets things confused enough to schedule two fraternities together and two sororities together.


Now that I've posted, can we go to everyone being mad at me?
