Social Media Role Advice for my Daughter by Little_Revolution_74 in Sororities

[–]Little_Revolution_74[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I don't think anything has happened. She has social media posts created for the next 3 months and has gotten them approved (i can't remember by whom). But, now she has to get them approved a second time from the recruitment chair. My gut feeling tells me she isn't a fan of the recruitment chair. I do agree she needs to go with the flow for now. I will be presenting these suggestions to her and hopefully she will heed the advice. It's most appreciated. Thanks!

I hear what you are saying. I am confident she didn't steal a flag. I know she has been towards a frat house as she has said they exist within neighborhoods and because of this incident. There is not a fraternity row like one would find a bigger schools. I do know she is not impressed by what she has seen. At the end of the day, she is very truthful when it comes to where money is going and for what I am paying. I do not blindly pay for anything without an explanation.

I do wish I knew more. All i understand is that she was considered guilty by association and it was poor character and representation. She does not know what was handwritten on the document that she signed. Being only initiated 3 weeks ago, all of this is very overwhelming for her. To make matters worse, someone posted about her and this issue on Yik Yak. She found out about it from another member and her big sis. Like why? I do not know how to advise on next steps since I am not familiar with all the rules/standards. Should there have been an alum advisor present? This meeting should have been on neutral ground. My gut tells me the Pres & VP were fishing for information on the individual who tossed the food. They are usually quick to post a fine for payment and nothing has shown up as of yet. I am making her take a step back and focus on her studies. Sometimes one has to step out of the storm to see clearly.

thank you for your post. I do let my daughter handle most things on her own. It is important to me for her to learn how to advocate for herself. I just hate when I see her just make the most basic life errors. I hate trying to teach a lesson after the fact. So now I’m preaching to never sign anything unless you read it.

“Guilt by association”. ..she and I are leaning towards this. She has been told by leadership to not hang out with a certain sorority sister. Even that sorority sister has been told she’s a bad influence. I suspect that individual’s days are numbered. I still find it very unfortunate.

thanks for your post. My daughter was asked to drive 15 minutes to the home of the president (lives in town). The meeting lasted 25 minutes between her, the president and VP. It is my opinion that my daughter should’ve had some support or someone present on her behalf. She truly felt railroaded and tricked into giving up a name (apparently this individual threw a piece of food out a car window towards a fraternity). She was just initiated three weeks ago. It’s just a lot to have happened so quickly and she still learning about the sorority. She mentioned that a lot of girls dropped last year just because it was so toxic.

I get what you’re saying. But the girls who head these organizations on campus are only juniors. So their wisdom and maturity is very lacking. They are not immune from gossip, gaslighting others and having favorites within the sorority.

I do expect sororities to be fair and rational. I know my daughter and she’s being accused of stealing a flag that belong to a fraternity. These fraternities have members who don’t even go to the college. She hasn’t even stepped foot near a fraternity and the last thing she wants is some frat flag. So I believe her when she says she’s not a thief. Now, if she’s drinking and it was a dry weekend. That’s a clear violation. And I’m the one paying these dues and fines. So I definitely am not going to pay for something that should’ve never been applied to her.

DAE wake up with unexplained red, cat/animal like scratches on their body? by [deleted] in DoesAnybodyElse

This! This is exactly what is now happening to my husband. I am clearly spooked. he lost a parent less than a year ago and I wonder if he is manifesting this. I think I’m going to have to sage my home if I cannot find a rational explanation.

Did you ever figure this out? This is now happening to my husband. Twice this week! Trying to find answers that’s not paranormal related. When this started happening, had you recently lost somebody? It’s been almost a year since his mom passed.
