not sure how to deal with this
by: PNMI am a PNM and a lot a lot a lot of girls from a variety of different houses (but mostly one) have been commenting on my instagram pics and I'm not sure how to go about it. I won't name the sorority for their own sake but how do I deal with it?

if it's making you uncomfortable, you can email the director of judicial to report them (you can find her email on the panhellenic website under 'judicial board'). don't feel bad about this. the girls know they shouldn't be doing it and its really not fair to the other houses. i know at my house, our rush chair hammered no contact period into our heads multiple times a week. the girls will never know it was you; they're going to assume a girl from another sorority turned them in (girls are PETTY during the summer gearing up for rush). this will definitely make them stop. if it doesn't really bother you, don't worry about it. we all know that commenting on pics doesn't make you want to go their sorority above the others. besides, if they're being super obvious about it, they'll probably end up getting turned in anyway.

PLEASE feel free to email anyone on the NPC counsel, you can find their contact information easily online.
THIS is why actives shouldn't be commenting on PNMs' pictures and stuff... Obviously it isn't fair to the other houses but more importantly, it isn't fair to the PNMs they're contacting. It can obviously make a lot of PNMs uncomfortable and it doesn't allow them to think about Greek life in general without getting bombarded with comments from certain houses. Such comments are usually superficial saying how pretty someone is and so forth which can also make the PNMs feel like their only attribute of quality is their appearance.
The only consequence a house will face if you do email the judicial board is that they will get a fine. Nothing too major and the house 100% will not know you "turned them in."
Sorry you feel uneasy about this. Hope you have a great 2k17 rush!!!

All of you actives telling the OP to relax and not be so sensitive should know better. It's a shame that y'alls house "operates" by breaking the rules. You shouldn't have to break the rules and make PNMs feel uncomfortable to get girls to want to pledge your house. And PSA, most houses who have actives consistently commenting on PNMs pictures are known to be shallow, superficial, and have bad sisterhoods.
To any PNMs concerned about this: If you truly feel uncomfortable about comments or any sort of contact instigated by an active at a house here, please feel free to email the judicial board OR you can wait until rush and talk to your Rho Chi about it.

The PNM never said they were "creeped out", they just want to post photos without random girls squeling over her even though that is EXPLICITLY against the rules. Sometimes PNMs might also think this means they've been "claimed" by that sorority in particular and other houses won't give them a fair shot because that one house is so interested.
PNM, your feelings are 100% normal and please follow the advice of the first reply.
