Really embarrassed as a Tri Delta to see Tri Delta specifically named in the article.

I wrote a rec for a young woman from Michigan who went through recruitment at Alabama this fall. She was released. (Yes, actually released.) I really felt badly for her. Far away from home and a terrible recruitment experience. Obviously I have no way of knowing what happened during her recruitment, but it just left a bad taste in my mouth.

I keep reading about the influx of outsiders into Alabama and I wonder why someone from the outside would go there. I mean no disrespect to the Alabama alums here who love their school. But as an outsider looking in... The Machine... The racism that is still apparent...

I just don't get it.
