[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Can’t stand organized groups that exclude people.   It is s symptom of what is wrong in the US today.   We need more inclusion and less exclusion. [/quote]

If you go into formal recruitment prepared with letters of rec to most houses + an open mind and a good attitude, and follow the rules and recommendations, it’s very probable you will get a bid somewhere. Some schools even have it so that if you do everything correctly with regards to rankings and attending events, that you are guaranteed a bid! It’s hardly super-exclusive apart from a few top chapters at every college. [/quote] What =ever makes you sleep at night, it is still exclusion. [/quote]

PP...when you go out to dinner with your friends, do you send an invitation to everyone you've ever met or just a few? If the latter, why are you excluding some people and not others??

I applied for a job at Google. I didn't get it, even though I think it would be way cool to work there and I would have made a pretty amazing addition to their team. I'm not going to go through life all bitter about not working at Google though. I don't even think they are "exclusive" so much as just wanted to hire a different person who was also pretty well qualified. I got a job at a different company. It worked out great.

A sorority is a membership-based organization, and no, it does not include everyone in membership. But it doesn't mean that the individual members can no longer be friends with people who are not given a bid. I am friends with many, many girls who pledged a sorority that did not invite me to pledge. It's fine.
