How in the world do these sororities know what the HHI of the rushees are?
They can look up the value of
parent’s home on zillow.
And how do they know their addresses? I don't remember filling out my address when I went through rush. And when I went through rush on the other side, I had no idea about how much money the rushees had.

Is it still the case that the DDD and St Elmo’s are mostly if not all the private school kids? Used to be the case so talking “top tier” was different depending on whether coming from private or not private as not private would not even consider or be considered by certain sororities/fraternities.
I just looked at their Instagram (yes I’m bored) and it appears that many of the girls in DDD are from out of state - places like Austin, Charleston, NYC, Newport Beach, Palm Beach. So, yes, I would say they appear to be of a certain demographic.
This has always been the case. The top echelon, socially, is dominated by wealthy, out-of-state students. Doesn’t mean you can’t have a good time there if this isn’t your crowd, but you can’t exactly ignore their presence, either.
Why the out of state students? What's wrong with the wealthy in-state students?

eh they can go, assuming they have friends who do get into those frats. My DD knows several independent guys and they get into parties because their friends invite them. My DS does the same at his frat. Not hordes of them of course, but if they have a good friend in the frat, they can usually get into alot of them.
By second year, most kids have fake ids and are going out on the Corner so they don't need to get into a frat. The Greek scene is really only dominant for first and second years. After that, it all kinda of goes out the window and they do more bars.
