Never heard of it, but I assume it's the Que's auxiliary group.

Auxiliary groups make me think one the following apply:

1. My boyfriend (or the guy I WANT to be my boyfriend) is a (insert auxiliary group's affiliation).

2. I really want to be an (AKA, SGRho, DST, ZPhiB), but I didn't (or don't think I will) make the cut, but I'll still be "Greek" with someone else's letters.

I can't really think of another reason that someone would join one.

When it comes to the internet shorter is usually better.

You should have just put a link instead of doing that giant copy/paste job.

Does anyone have any idea what the court case in question is? I've heard this mentioned so many times without specifics, I'm starting to think this falls into the "why can't we have a sorority house" Urban Legend area...

That's EXACTLY what I think, as well. You aren't Greek because you rock the letters of some organization and claim to be a "little sister" or a "sweetheart" if you aren't already in a GLO. It doesn't appear cool and it seems like you are trying too hard. I can just imagine the ladies of AKA, DST, SGRho, and ZPhiB, giving you the side-eye and looking at you like a D9 reject because you "think" you are Greek when you really aren't.

The person's a troll - who wants "POT" on a T shirt. No, not P O T, Rho Omicron Tau.

So, take the whole saltshaker with whatever it says.
