VERY nice. I like the fact that the lists of well-known or remarkable sorority women just lists them without their specific GLO.

I think I like it. It just kind of introduces girls to the idea without totally overwhelming them with info. This is good for girls who may still be in HS but are just hearing about sororities. I would like to see a section telling girls what the next step is if they decide that they're interested in sorority life (who to contact at school, how to register, etc). I'm sure that's all in the works though.

I agree, except I don't like that they don't list all of them. For example, they don't have listed Kimberly Williams(-Paisley) who is an Alpha Phi.
ETA: I didn't even know some of those women went to college.

They also do not list Kate Snow, who is the weekend anchor of Good Morning America and also does work for regular GMA and the ABC nightly news. Yet, they list several local/affiliate TV anchors. Strange.
I do like the site and the concepts they are working to portray.

what she said 
I also like that they named it The Sorority Life, instead of " sorority life"

We've seen links like the ones that you referenced before. As I'm sure you know, undergrads sometimes post the names of people who aren't members. I haven't seen a credible source that lists Ms. Shepherd as a member of an NPC sorority.
Could any members of Chi Omega vouch that Cybill Shepherd is, indeed, a member?

Why is this so important to you?

Admittedly, this is a very incomplete list. However, I would think that Cybill Shepherd would merit a listing if Sela Ward does - she is more well-known, I believe.

Is this your way of diverting attention from yourself? I can understand that.
Whether or not C.S. is a Chi Omega is not that important to me. I simply pointed out that that alum list was not fully accurate. Then, your post tried to refute my post. Now, you question me rather than admit your mistake.
