Snobby little cliques? My sorority, ZTA at Chico State, California, had several philanthropies, one of which was the Association for Retarded Citizens. Before I was in the sorority, I was afraid of "retarded" people. Now I actively involved in some sports activities with them. Snobby cliques? I just had a reunion with them. Everyone I hung out with was down to earth. Maybe you're watching too much MTV.
Of course, some are snobby little cliques. I didn't say ALL were snobby little cliques. I've been on the receiving end of snobby little cliques, so I know about snobby little cliques firsthand. I don't even get MTV, don't watch much TV - am still poor and still don't fit into snobby little "who's who and what's what and who's got what" cliques.
