No, I think the SNL thing is exactly correct. Think about the average American and their understanding of Greek life. When they hear “tri Delta” do they think “has a wing at St. Jude’s names after them for their philanthropy” or do they think “delta delta delta can I help ya help ya help ya”? Same goes for Kappa - the sound of the words “kappa kappa gamma” elicits a certain image of a stereotypical sorority portrayed in media and THAT is what makes their “national reputation” for those outside the Greek community. Do I wish everyone acknowledged all the great stuff Kappa does instead of just hearing alarm bells for “cliche sorority girl” when they’re mentioned? Of course! But for most people who can’t tell phi sigma sigma from tri sigma, they hear any sorority’s name and it immediately becomes “thigh mega tampon”. Sorority national reputation only exists within Greek life. Outside of it it’s our responsibility to make sure ALL of Greek life is well represented, because no one is going to care if we were AOII or ADPi if they weren’t Greek, they’re either going to think “wow all Greeks are terrible like the news” or “wow this girl is changing my mind of what I thought sorority women were like.” And THAT is the only national reputation that should matter.
