Well, that's 3 minutes of my life that could have been better spent doing ANYTHING else.

The only good thing about that article was finding out that college kids still use the term shacker. Other than that, she should probably find a different major.

Every college population and every subset within a college population has their own fashion (I should probably say "fashion") things that they do. It's not something you will get kicked out of your group for not following or anything sinister or serious. Allure even had a feature a few years ago about how women who hang out together start dressing like each other. It's like when women who live together are on the same cycle.

Heck it was a LOT worse when there was no internet shopping and only a few college age friendly stores to choose from in a small town. You had to get used to showing up at a party with 6 other girls wearing the same shirt.

And just in time, I guess, there's a story / article making the Internetrounds about what one source's posting calls

"a truly delightful and entirely unhinged email we received from an anonymous tipster, which outlines the appearance guidelines for the women of the Alpha Chi Omega chapter at University of Southern California."

Essentially the same story is also at

Jezebel posts article criticizing sorority women with incorrect terminology!

In other words, Pope Francis is Catholic!

Water is wet!

Eta: Bustle is even more idiotic as they seem to not understand these are guidelines for a specific event.
