Because Cobalts22 is Big Walt. I've received several e-mails from some girl I don't know who praised this book and the rest.

Thumbs up I read the book and saw the movie

I really enjoyed the book and the movie. I am an aka and I know this book is so for real. I recommend it seriously. It is an unbelievable read even if you are not in a sorority so yes I like it no matter who hates on it. Get it and see for yourself 'cause most lame comments come from people who just see the covers and have not watch or read them. Much love to this bruh who I think is a kappa by his logo.

Glad to see Big Walt and the marketing crew back at it. I had to put about fifteen "soro"s on block at various email accounts for sending me spam about this and the Delta book Big Walt made. And before anyone asks, I spelled sorors the jacked up way it keeps hitting my email account from Big Walt and the crew. You can't abbreviate sorority or soror doh.

Lots of places "authorize" their history.

I hear Japan and Turkey "authorized" their history books to omit war atrocities.

I'm sure someone can point out exactly what the author is wrong on and all that instead of just attacking the author for writing something that isn't "authorized".

Rudey if it was that simple we would. The books are 1) overpriced, 2) most are under 150 pages 6 by 8 pages are often on size 20ish font, and 3) it's not a history of our orgs--it's cut and pasted information found on the net or in the few AUTHORIZED histories pasted together for public consumption. And the mistakes from those sources are reprinted verbatim and as facts when they are indeed not true. We aren't slamming him for the sake of slamming him. His "work" is at best a rip off and at worst a big steaming pile of crap.

ETA: He flat out makes up some stuff in the Delta book and no I'm not just saying that because someone told me. I bought the book to see why all of the prospective friends I had at the time were clamoring about it. After reading it all I could do is laugh because nothing in there would prepare anyone to be a Delta not to mention the amount of incorrect info in it. Authorization, in this cause I'm sure you know, is the only way to make sure the info is based on history versus conjecture.

A scheme for money

Just keeping it real......the books look like he cut and pasted information from websites and changed the font. All are about 125 6inch pages. Mostly 20 pages of chapter listing....what a looser. Big Walt is a big scham...but hey maybe that all he knows to do to make money. May someone in the greek family broke his heart.....


Or just maybe he wanted to be a.......pick one(lol)



I need my money to bad to waste it on Big Walt.....but he has been writing the same type of books for a while with the same type of information worded differently...wonder why?

Instead of buying it...just browse through it in the bookstores ...it will only take you about 15 to read the whole thing...lol
