Well, let's evaluate:

"Congress shall make no law respecting an establishment of religion, or prohibiting the free exercise thereof; or abridging the freedom of speech, or of the press; or the right of the people peaceably to assemble, and to petition the government for a redress of grievances."

So if you are referring to your first amendment rights on GC, I would guess it would be when Congress starts legislating GC's moderation. If you are referring to your rights outside of GC, let's discuss it in News/Politics.

Just making sure I was clear on that issue. Cause Obviously a couple of my post that included links were of a disturbing nature and were censored for reason not outlined in the information you listed above.

Owtlaw, as mentioned the Bill of Rights pertains ONLY to government interference with individuals' rights. You know you are making the Iotas look bad. But then you were worse on that other board. Hmmmm, is Iotamantobe your sock puppet?

What bandwagon might that be? I'm original. I don't bandwagon.

Don't be so sure about that last one - I don't know what the NPHC scene is at other campuses, but our one D9 organization (AKA) on campus initiated one person last year. She's white. (About as white as you can get, actually...)

Pssst. Sarcasm.

I see the regular questions asked. But what if a person would like to be part of Top Ladies of Distinction. I see many of the members have previous family members who are part but is it able for a person who does not have any family members or friends be part of such a unique organization.

P.S. Be gentle.....i have read....and have seen the intensity this forum gives....

Your best bet is to visit their website. You should be able to get more information that way.

Here's an actual newbie question I have...Is there anyway you can visit a sorority and see what their all about with out being a student from that particular school?

I think the answers no, but I want to confirm. Because of financial issues I have to go to a school with no greek life, but once I get my residency I plan to transfer to the nearest school that does, but only if I think it'll be totally worth it...

If you have friends in that sorority, they may invite you to visit. But you just can't randomly show up and say "hey, give me a tour!" Even with this, is't hard to see "what it's all about" through a visit with a friend. Some schools have Greek preview weekends in the spring for girls who are rushing the following autumn.

You also probably want to be sure something like this is OK with BYU as I realize they have more stringent rules for their students' off-campus activities than most colleges.

This may have changed drastically since I was in high school, or prior to Recruitment, but I visited several chapters prior to entering college. Maybe I was asking the right people in the right way, but the only time I wasn't invited to visit a chapter was when they didn't have their house completed.

Don't take this the wrong way, but that was a long time ago. There are just too many creepy people out there nowadays. It's one thing if they're a fellow student (and can produce ID) but a random off the street? I wouldn't have even done that in sleepy old Clarion.

LMAO...the sad thing is that people say stuff in REAL life. I know a girl that wanted to go a certan NPHC sorority really bad. Anyway, she went to every event in their colors. I kept telling her that wasn't the smartest thing to do but she swore that I didn't know what I was talking about since I wasn't NPHC.

Needless to say she didn't make it...

ONLY and ONLY Can Unkie E say this about Me!

And Yes, there are some mean people on GC. They know whom they are.

But, there are also Ass Wipes who want to stir Stuff up and ask Inane Questions and stir a Big Cauldron=Pot of Crap!

Get it? Got It!
