I think Tom's comments have to do with something other than the topic at hand.

Here's a good one that I don't ever recall having seen on GreekChat: the Chinese President (Xi Jinping's) daughter attended Harvard, under a pseudonym, with 24 hour bodyguards - and she was a member of a GLO. She has since graduated. The earth kept rotating. Harvard functioned just fine. So did the GLO.

Oh, I'm sure the comments (less comments than drunken ramblings) probably are related to something else.

I think we are both saying the same things--the children of past and current heads of states have gone through college and sorority recruitment just fine!

Holy cow, I never heard this! What group did she join? With body guards, not sure the pseudonym was effective...

She appears to be a Kappa Alpha Theta...

Here's an article with information. I suspect she flew very low under the radar and I'm sure her bodyguards were also inconspicuous.

She is a Kappa Alpha Theta.

ETA: Munchkin03 we are absolutely saying the same thing.

There have been a number of students who have had bodyguards for some or all of their time in college--some, like the Olsen twins and Emma Watson, are very recognizable to their peers, while others--like the children of foreign heads of state and prominent foreign businessmen--may not be as much.

I went to college with a few kids who weren't necessarily household names to the average American teenager, who definitely had security details.
