Our nationals also provides social media guidelines for us, and we have to sign promising we will follow them.

Our risk management chair would enforce them, sending women notifications that they had 48 hours to remove the offending images without further consequences.

We did something just like this, except you would just comment "Oh, this makes me blue". That was our code that it should come down before the RM chair noticed it.

We have an account run by our Standards Council (under a fake name) that every member has to be friends with and give full profile viewing access to- if you see something inappropriate, you can report it to that account and they will ask her to take it down. They also do regular checks of everyone's recent posts and photos.

The ZTAs on my campus do this except they comment "CC" for "Crooked Crown." I know of another chapter here that also has a fake account like sweetmagnolia's:

I kind of feel like you trust people to not be dumb, but I suppose that's unrealistic.

Between the two I would prefer the first because it means everyone is holding themselves accountable instead of someone on e-board being Big Brother and reprimanding you. I would assume people respond better to it.

Not to mention, all you'd have to do is hide that album from that "friend" and put all the inappropriate pics in there.

WHOA.

Not a rant from me, not even pearl clutching, but, rather, an "educational" request:

Autism Spectrum Disorders are (a) not a mental impairment (b) not a mental illness. Autism is a brain-based difference. I have been fortunate enough to treat people on the spectrum since God was a baby, so kinda know a little bit more than the average bear.

With the incidence of ASD being 1 in 110 or 1 in 150 (depending on who you cite), there are, in all likelihood, GC members or family members affected by ASD.

No sadness that I jumped in the first place? I tell ya.


So...yeah...the original topic isn't horrible--since facebook still has its minions. Organizations and chapters should (and many already do) have protocol and policies to handle Internet and "in person" matters.

I just find the OP to be interestingly disgruntled to be a newbie.

I was always neutral about Barbie's Rush and anything she typed because she's a sockpuppet or something like that. Right? LOL.
