Regarding 'shameless plugs'
I know everyone really loves their sorority/fraternity/chapter and I know that deep down, we all kind of wish that each and every PNM would join 'our' group. But, reality is that each PNM must make her own decision, based on her own experiences during recruitment.
Please keep in mind that although you mean well with 'shameless plugs' for your sorority, it can put some stress on an already stressful situation for a PNM. Just as we would like each PNM to respect the recruitment process of each chapter on their campus by keeping their selections/invitations anonymous, please respect the PNM's right to choose their home, without outside influence. And if that PNM's final decision is contradictory to opinions voiced earlier in the week, then that again is a good reason why chapter identities and shameless plugs should be kept as vague and as positive as possible. I would hate to find out that a PNM's experience in real life was negatively impacted by comments made on GC, however innocent. It has happened before (and no, I won't go into details and I hope longtime GC members will refrain from doing so as well).
Each chapter of each group is different. Each groups recruitment/member selection process is different. They all deserve our respect.
Thanks for listening!
