WTF?

That shows that they're empowered and take the MAN out of WOMAN...
Or just silly considering they call themselves PHINE all the time...

Woops! Didn't check my own forum before I started posting. Thanks for the tip, EvianLove. FYI, we've never had a colony at Berkeley.

Ladies, do not feel too bad or alone in this.
SAE has a very similar problem with a group overseas.

Aww, y'all... a photo was just brought to my attention. Apparently it's not just Theta Nu Xi that these women don't know about. They must not be taught Greek etiquette at all. Check out this picture from the Delta Class:
What's the one in the back doing????? Come on, ladies.

The girl on the front right looks frighteningly familiar however that's just because she looks like one of my sisters (who's way too smart to get involved in something like this)

This is what happens when you originate..
I feel all your pain..
When you originate something great, others can't help but to duplicate..
Remember.. "imitation is the greatest form of flatery"
That's why I chose to be part of the FIRST Latinos Down... not some cheap Lambda wanna-be imitators...
In greek Unity,
Luis Nobriga
The first and only TRUE LAMBDAS..
since 1975!

Actually Lambda Tau Omega does the same thing ( http://www.lambdawomyn.org/herstory.htm ). I think it's kind of interesting. But anyway, LTO has been doing that for AGES so I wouldn't suggest for a moment that my org does it.
The copycat thing is annoying; but I guess they just admire these other orgs so much. Oh well is all I can say really...

Enjoy!
P.S. I must not have been in the room when we changed our symbol to the "dragon" butterfly.
