Comment:  When I was in this sorority, they singled girls out--made them feel unwelcome...Held "sister circles" where they would air out the issues and tensions and 1 rule was you could not bring up the same person twice in the circle but to my surprise they brought me and my friend up 3x in a row and didn't have an issue with it. It was because we were "hanging out with the boys too much" [I'm a total tomboy, I don't get along with girls I only pledged because my guy-friends said I would like it---they were wrong.] I got up and walked away. A lot of other sisters dropped because of this as well. If you don't go to the mandatory greek ball for $30 because you're down to your last $80 for the semester, you get fined $50. Because that makes sense. When it came time for our alumni ceremony, I still told them to off over the fine. They told me I couldn't come because I had outstanding fines, when 3 other girls also had outstanding fines --but they were allowed to go. So my other friend that got kicked out [they purposely didn't invite me and our other friend to the vote because they knew we'd say no] I spent the night with her and my mom wired me money to pay the fine and I exchanged it for pennies and spent the night cracking opening pennies into a jar... $50 of pennies. The next day I gave the financial chair $50 worth of pennies in like 6 gallon bags. Alumni network is non-existent, girls are catty, don't exist in State, COLOSSAL waste of money. Only legacy I hold with them is I started the AST House from the Pepsi House in PennView. Otherwise, this sorority -as it was- can suck it.
