The issues with Songfest: 1) T-shirt sales are just plain dumb. If the point is to raise money, then a penny war would be much better. T-shirts were sold for $16 apiece, and I can tell you, from having ordered shirts myself, more than half of that is going to CC Creations or whatever company manufactures those shirts. I would be mad too if only half of my money went to the philanthropy and all I'm left with is another sorority's shirt that I won't be wearing. 2) XO wants sororities to buy 300 shirts per sorority in order to get bonus points onto their score. That's about one shirt per girl in each chapter. No sorority girl wants to wear another sorority's shirt. This is simply a way for XO to get others to do their marketing for them. 3) Songfest is a dance variety competition. It should be about dance and philanthropy. Doing some kind of "pay to win" is just taking away the essence of the event. 4) Sororities should be spending their own time and money primarily on their own philanthropies. The expense and practice put into the event is enormous. Each sorority could be spending their resources volunteering at their local philanthropies instead. That would make a much more real and visible impact on our community than buying t-shirts, little of which goes to the actual philanthropy.
