[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Seems like there's no way to make everybody happy.  Either you let girls continue all the way through under the false hope and/or delusion they're going to be picked by a top sorority (only to leave them with nothing at the end when the top sorority drops them and they already foreclosed any other opportunities they might have had to join a lower tier house) or you accept that rush is a big farce and since the top houses already know who they want before rush (thus no point in actually meeting and getting to know other girls), you cut girls early and often (which gives them a chance to explore other options but also uses these girls to pad the numbers at struggling houses).

It’s a farce. Cutting early still doesn’t work that way.[b] The middle houses may cut you because your resume makes them think you’ll go to a more popular house (GPA, high school, camps, etc)[/b] but the popular houses can’t take everyone (and dirty rushing has them almost full anyway)  so midweek lots of girls who have resumes for competitive houses but no connections are left with only the house that’s desperately trying to stay active which is not appealing to most 18 year olds.  Why bother rushing? If you want that house, you could just COB that house with zero stress and misery.

Frats get a bad rap for hazing but they do a much better job at matching with compatible members and it’s very laid back. Sororities take all the negative stereotypes about middle school female friendships  and sell it as a fun week. [/quote]
