Well, if it's that odd, why are several chapters at the smaller Texas schools wearing them in their social media photos from philanthropy events, recruitment events, social events, etc? Please check out some of the social media at these smaller schools, they are not quite as "high fashion" as you would like to believe. I did a quick look at several facebook pages and saw tons of cowboy boots (which I thought was awesome) and Chucks.
I also would not have made the recommendation about the shoes had I not checked with a college aged women (one who just finished traveling for her organization, not mine, and travelled throughout Texas) who said that Chucks or cowboys boots would be much better choices than Born, Merrill or Dansko. Her words not mine "no one under the age of 40 would be caught dead in those type of flats".
Also SororitySock, your "neck of the woods" reads heavily with snark. I attended a university with over 35,000 students and live in an area with over 250,000 people, I don't believe there are any woods to speak of. Please don't insult any Big Ten university and imply that it is backwoods or unsophisticated enough to know what fashion is. That's what annoyed me. I also don't claim that my alma mater gets recruitment right, but ask most women who have been through it and they will tell it's tough. If for no other reason, there is no other campus in the country with 23 NPC chapters which makes for a grueling schedule.
