Strip Your Letters
by: SYLHi lovely PNM’s (and actives lol)!! Please check out @stripyourletters on instagram. It focuses on issues in KU’s Greek life specifically but many of the issues are problems found in Greek life at every school. It’s always a good idea to educate yourself before committing to something like this and especially so that you can be part of the solution not the problem regarding these issues!

How can PNM's strip their letters if they don't have any letters?
Encouraging awareness regarding the issues of diversity and inclusivity in the greek system are important I think everyone would agree but no one can be part of the solution or change from the outside looking in.
Want to change things? Join a chapter you feel is open to these ideals and go about working with current members and the chapter's National Headquarters in promoting awareness and the need for systemic revisions in PHC/IFC governing councils at our campus and campuses nationwide.

Strip Your Letters is made up of many men and women who have experienced Greek life (active members, alum, etc) at KU spreading across all councils (IFC, PHA, NPHC, and MGC). It was created to encourage men and women in Greek life to demand more from their organizations and encourage their members in power to enact change and create and reform policies to protect and support their members.

I'm so sorry! I think everyone here agrees it shouldn't be that way. If we all unite together to change things we can better the entire community but we must work as a united group! I hope there are task forces formed when we get back with reps from every Greek chapter where we can consider changes to improve things and that people like yourself with bad experiences will be listened to (but can remain anonymous if that is preferred.)
HUGS to you PH sister!

I absolutely support creating change from the inside out! But I think the first step is an awareness of the issues in Greek life. That’s what I was encouraging PNM’s to look at on the instagram. The actual strip your letters movement encourages active Panhellenic women to stop providing PHA support/visibility online until they make real changes to better support members who do not fall into the typical sorority categories of white/skinny/wealthy. As stated, this movement originated to hold KU PHA accountable, but the issues are widespread all over Greek life.
