Please be careful what you say, I understand that you have already finished recruitment but it is not hard to figure out where you are going to school. This sorority you speak off is not considered "new", they closed I believe in Spring of 2002 under the condition to reorganize and come back as a colony this year. They had a very sucessful recruitment this Fall and I believe pledged 138 women. Colonizing is hard for chapters because they have to bring in other college members from other state schools and alumni to recruit. I hope that this story has a happy ending for you but please be careful what you say. If some find my response critical, I apologize.

Thank you

Just use it as a lesson...these boards can talk. Anyhow, I hope you found your home. Look forward to hearing the rest of your story

What I mean, is that things that are said on this board can come back to bite you in the butt. These boards are read by a lot of members of dif. greek orgs at a lot of schools around the country including where you go. Even though you have already been through recruitment and are merely giving everyone your initial impression of the houses, members of those houses can see those comments and it can be used against you. I don't know details but I think there were some PNMs who weren't careful in chosing their words on this board and it affected their recruitment. Just because this particular forum requires you to have usename and password to post doesn't mean the information we put forth here is not public. Even if there aren't members of those particular chapters at your school on this board, word can get back to them. I hope that clarifies things.

Sometimes people also take what is said on GC and move it into real life. For example, it would not be difficult to figure out who you are, and someone from a chapter you didn't speak highly of, etc. may try to make your life difficult, either on GC or in real life. This is obviously unfortunate, but it's reality.

We appreciate your honesty, but it's always best to use discretion!

Please continue your story - I'm looking forward to the ending!

Just so you know how easy it is...

I live in WA. I don't know any of the schools in the south. But, I found the school in question in 5 seconds googling.

The internet is not private, and don't mistake it for being so.

My God! Chill out, people. All she said is the conversation was strained and she didn't think the sorority came off well. Big deal.

The veiled threats make you all just look childish.

To the OP, I hope you'll continue with your story. I'd love to hear how things went for you.

I wouldn't bother finishing the story if I were her...she's probably scared to death! Like nobody is entitled to an opinion!
