I gave you an honest explanation. Sorry you didn't like it. You took offense at nothing.

Good luck to your daughter.

Wow, lighten up, everyone! I wasn't offended but am sorry that you were. My comment wasn't directed to any person but to the process. As you might guess from my username, this is all new to me - I went to a school that had no Greek organizations.

From what I've read here, IU's recruitment is known for being particularly hard on the girls. So I was looking for information that could help allay hurt feelings should they arise. The recruitment website says some chapters may have a higher GPA minimum and I naively assumed those would be available somewhere. I now understand why they aren't (thank you IndianaSigKap!).

Thank you to those who wished my daughter well, and I wish the same for all moms and daughters going through this very interesting but very difficult process.

You have to understand that this…

..sounded extremely condescending and sarcastic. Whether you were directing it at AZTheta or not, I don't know, but putting down a process that you yourself have admitted you know nothing about is not exactly going to make you friends here. Every NPC sorority at every campus has private membership selection criteria. That's just how it is.
