The video tho...
A recruitment video posted by the Alpha Phi, Beta Mu Chapter has gotten a lot of negative attention.
In the video, sorority members are shown in various situations having fun.
But some critics of the video say scenes showing the students dancing in bikinis go too far and do not reflect the student life at the University of Alabama.
The video tho...
Watched it on mute and the message I walked away with is black ball players can have harems full of white women. But, like, we knew that already.
I love me some white women...
ROLL TIDE
lol and of course the prettiest one in that video is a brunette from the gif GQ posted

That chick just stood out because of the wink.

By db Go To PostSo do they actually attend class or..Who's got time for classes when there's frolicking to be done?
By reilo Go To PostDoes that school have a masters program with a high acceptance rate? Asking for a friend.Any specific major? I can ask this guy who I'm on PSN with all the time, he knows all things Alabama.
By reilo Go To Postph33…Apparently there's some inside joke. I'll not take things seriously anymore.

let's quote more music
Soon as I saw the title, my mind went right to this video
Do they open a book at some point, or show a teacher or a library?
Since it is, you know, a university and not a glorified mega-expensive social club for rich white kids that provide them a piece of paper validating their worth over others.
Oh, I'm told it is exactly that last thing. Nevermind.

While it is easy to fall into this line of thinking, I just want to call out that in my experience working in corporate, the more attractive the woman, the better and harder they worked because they had to put in the extra effort to be taken seriously, precisely because of attitudes like this. Don't be judgmental, man.

Don't be judgmental, man.I don't think either of you are wrong, but both of you are talking about different things here I feel.
Wasn't that a video for the sorority itself and not necessarily for the University of Alabama? If they want to show a video to a bunch of other pretty white girls that their sorority is the place to meet your future sisters, then that's whatever. When kids go to college they want to find that brotherhood/sisterhood. I don't get the impression that this is a sorority for any educational reason (like a business school frat), it's more just for fun.
With that being said, it IS a glorified mega-expensive social club for white girls. But I wasn't expecting them to advertise anything else.
You're pretty spot on with the "pretty girls have to work harder to be taken seriously" ... like I have a friend who models and is also a really great violinist and I've heard comments through the years from my peers "You can't be beautiful and that good!" lol what
By DY_nasty Go To PostYou'd think Alabama would have a decent basketball team by now
"Basketball? What's that?" - every person in alabama.
I don't think any sorority is obligated to paint their house as some beacon of institutional higher learning that is directly reflective on or of the University. This is a marketing tool for their clubhouse. That's it. If they want to be known as the hot skinny white girl clique that has fun when not in class then that's their prerogative to do so. Seems like an appealing choice if you fit their very obvious criteria.
And besides, everyone knows that you can't fall behind the other houses during this time of year. You just can't. Those Alpha Omega bitches are looking tighter and tighter Amber. Try being more like Molly, or Heather, and less like Amber, Amber. God, I just can't...
Also, Tineisha and Ebony, we're sorry, but we're no longer accepting new pledges. Do let your friends know.
And Fat Jessica, please try again next semester if you've dropped down a dress size or twenty.
Kthanxbye. Xoxo

I think it's hilarious they faced pressure to take the video down. As if sororities and fraternities have some public image they have to save. That being said ... I'm not into skinny blondes.

Not condescending at all
By blackace Go To Posthow you going to hate on the program tiat gave us Spree and Mo?because that organization gave us spree and mo. scust
and as someone deeply embedded in that greek life for a while, that recruitment video is, plainly, everything wrong with sororities lol. like what did all of that highlight? they deserve to be clowned. there's plenty of groups out there putting in work but this shit? no. clown them.
By Vahagn Go To PostNot condescending at all
This is exactly Reilo's point, dude...
By db Go To PostHonestly what's kind of weird to me is how public the promo is given how exclusionary it looks.That's pretty much America in a nutshell tbh
Celebrity culture these days I guess. Plenty of people wanting attention for the shallowest of reasons.
By Vahagn Go To PostNot condescending at allwhy are you doing this?
By blackace Go To Postwhy are you doing this?
