if you'd asked that question a year ago...i would have said...definitely 3.0 minimum...but i have found that those with 3.0's and above aren't always more intelligent than those that have below a 3.0...ya'll remember that einstein flunked math right? sometimes it's the opposite way around for a variety of reasons...i don't believe that grades are a true indicator of ones dedication, intelligence, or likelihood of success in a sorority...or in life period...but there obviously has to be some bottom line requirement so i say 2.75 across the board...you have to take into account that scholarship...often wrongly defined and wrongly determined to be evidenced by grades...is not what is going to make all women successful...and as an entertainer that highly values education and even plans on attending graduate school...its not always about the grades...and having attained true knowledge...valuable knowledge cannot be assessed by a scale that encourages pure memorization to move onward and upward as opposed to true learning...


on the otherhand i don't think girls should be sliding in on a 2.75 either...just because they have it...with no evidence of intelligence beyond achieving the minimum requirement...but if i were on an intake committee i would rather see two 2.75's of intelligence make it than 30 3.0's who are only book smart and don't know how to think for themselves...
