[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I went to a school with no sororities, so I am reading this thread with zero knowledge and total fascination. What does any of this have to do with college? It is such a strange thing. [/quote]

Me too. I intentionally avoided applying to schools with sororities and they sound even (much much much) worse than I even imagined. [/quote]

Well, the depictions here are not very accurate, except perhaps at Alabama or Old Miss, so I wouldn’t give much weight to them.  Typical of DCUM that people who weren’t actually in a sorority think they know everything about them.[/quote]

Exactly.  +101  I did not go to Alabama or Old Miss but I did go to a large state school where Greek life was a big part of the social scene.  Unless you live under a rock you would recognize our house.  I love all those girls and they have helped me through some of the worst and best times of my life.  Even today, 30+ years out of school, I know that I can pick up the phone, call one of my sisters and she will be here in a heartbeat.  And I would do the same for her.  It was one of the best choices I ever made to rush and I would not hesitate to encourage any girl interested to do the same.[/quote]

That’s lovely. It’s based on exclusion. You don’t seem to get that. [/quote]

[b]Oh, I get it all right.  I also don't think that everyone should get a ribbon or medal or statue just for showing up.

The concept of a sorority or fraternity is people with like interests finding each other and entering into a deeper bond.  The reality is that any single sorority or fraternity cannot accept everyone who is interested.  Fortunately there are a lot of sororities or fraternities so there are plenty of options.

I was fortunate that I found the right group for me.  I highly recommend that girls who are interested explore their options and rush.[/quote]

Yeah, they should get a medal based on how they look, what high school they went to or what camps they intended instead.
