YouTubers, Influencers, etc.

Basically the gist is: people whose personalities aren't really cut out for sororities join and then encounter problems. Then, instead of going out gracefully and just realizing it wasn't a mutual match, they badmouth either their sorority, or Greek life in general on their YT channel. Whether or not this does any discernible damage to the sorority or GL in general is in the eye of the beholder, but they clearly put private business on the internet where it in no way belongs, and they don't really take responsibility for their role in the situations. Some of the videos have gotten pretty high view counts, so who knows who is watching all of this stuff.

I imagine it's probably capable of kicking a girl to one side of the fence that is pretty undecided on GL- those girls really treated so and so horribly! It's arguable if the Greek system could benefit from such a person, but 18 year olds are easily influenced by their Peers.

Definitely fuels the flames of anti- Greek sentiments.

This happened to a chapter on my campus last year and the former member in question aired out a bunch of chapter dirty laundry.

This is 100% what happened. The NHQ got involved and even asked her to take it down but she refused.

Wow, I wasn't thinking about your school when I wrote that. I didn't even know it had happened there!

Darn YTers! Lol.
