Drolefille and AlphaFrog,

FOR THE LOVE OF BETSY AND ALL THINGS HOLY...

Just stay out of it, please! You are not part of the Divine 9, you will never be a part of the Divine 9, and just because you've been on GC a long time to see how things are handled DOES NOT make you an authority of how things should be handled in the Divine 9 forums.

Dang, the Alpha forum has "tension"?

As mentioned before, the answer to the interest's questions/concerns are "stuck" at the top of this forum's page.

If there are any questions or concerns as to "why or why not", PM the moderator(s).

SO, you are saying that becaus eI dont have more than 50 posts on this board, I have no standing and I cant speak on behalf of my Fraternity? I am not even going to dignify that with a response

Hi Brother,

Just be mindful that we're all different, with different opinions, and none of us speaks on behalf of the Fraternity at large, not even the moderators. Discuss intake matters at your own risk -- sometimes I do, sometimes I don't. Really depends on the situation.

All in all, we're on the same page.

I replied to him because he stated that he was willing to accept any and all advice. It seems odd that you didn't cal out f8nacn in the same way. When he said that it made some sort of difference whether I WAS in the d9 or not, then I stopped. Ironically he then went on to listen to the same advice from someone else. And I wasn't even wearing my mean pants that day.

Thanks for your concern.

f8nacn doesn't have the same reputation you and AlphaFrog have of not knowing when to keep quiet.

Yeah, I said it GC.

THAT'S WHY.

f8nacn doesn't have the same rep on the general forums...but have you read much of what she's posted on the D9 boards?

/Not even addressing the irony this situation presents.

They will probably want to know that and the reason behing you having a low-gpa at this point in your academic career. Just some things to think about.

Good luck on your pursuit.

I'll be honest here...I think that going to an information session and asking if your borderline GPA would hurt your chances of getting in is alot like going into a restaurant in an affluent section of town and asking how much the drink specials are.

The truth is, they are probably not going to be able to tell you...it's like anything else...if they really want you, they'll look over it, if GPA is extremely important to that particular chapter, they won't.

The problem is, they don't know you yet.

How this became a personal attack against me I don't know.... Why hate, because he received what I said because I said the exact same thing in a more tactful manner.

Anyway, to the statement above, it doesn't matter. A person with minimal qualification can apply and receive a job over a person that has more experience because of character.

The OP has 8 posts including the ones here. How would he know their reputations? If the fact that they were not D9 caused him concern, then that concern should have been spread evenly.

Really? Unless that job does background checks how will they know that applicant's character before they hire him or her? Thus the validity of SouthernSweet's response.

Honestly, what the OP is saying is of no concern to me.

I just wonder why AlphaFrog and drolefille feel the need to be annoying as hell and stick their nose into everything (this is not just limited to the D9 forums). I'm getting visions of the incident in the AKA forum not too long ago.

Maybe I didn't single out f8nacn because f8nacn doesn't strike me as annoying like you two are. And yes, I try to keep up with D9 discussions.

Just stating the obvious.
