[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Well, as we used to say -- if you can't make friends, I guess you can buy them (by paying dues and joining a sorority). Seems flaky and weird to me, but I'm from the NE -- I hear that sororities are sort of de rigueur for southerners?[/quote] This reflects a profound misunderstanding of sorority selection process. The implication is that sororities are open to anyone willing to pay the price. The reality is that while the cost can be an obstacle that prevents some from joining a sorority, the real obstacle is receiving a “bid,” i.e., being asked to join the sorority. Sorority rush can be very humbling and leaves many scarred for life (including, perhaps, some on this thread). There is no point in defending Greek-life in a forum composed of those who already out of college – our views are very unlikely to change. I would simply caution anyone who thinks they can buy their DD a spot in the top sororities to be prepared to be humbled.[/quote]
