*Smh*, indeed. It all seems so silly to the rest of the world. It sounds like things may be slowly changing, though, and that's good.

I feel for the Alpha Gam homecoming candidate who doesn't have a banner or any support at her own chapter house! That is just weird and wrong. I would feel so hurt and disappointed and let down.

It's also frustrating to know how controlled by the boys these young women are. I get it, I know it happens, but I wish they could just realize how much power they do have, collectively. Instead they're letting the boys assign their value and popularity. Again, very frustrating since these are groups that are supposed to strengthen and empower women.
