Ok I know it sounds crazy, but if your kid ends even a school like Michigan or other Big 10/SEC schools, AND you do vacation in the right spots/go to private school/have a somewhat fancy life make sure they have “some” social media presence showing their “lifestyle”…esp if kids /you are more low key….and if your family name isn’t googleable…

Our kids are super low key - bc we’ve taught them to be and not post anything showcasing our life; but that’s not helpful for rush…..for Rush it’s important to have some of this stuff on social media (save as destinations to stories section on IG)….start early in high school…

Trust me.
Btdt.
Will give your kid more house options out of the gate.


This kind of stuff is so sad.


It is not that different than padding resumes with ECs and bogus awards to get in to the 'right' universities. Truth be told the quality of secondary education is not that different among the top 100ish schools (because the education is what the kids make of it) but parents convince themselves there is a big difference when really it is name value/branding/connections which is not really different than rush and greek life when it comes down to it.

Ehh.
It’s the way of the world.
Plus sororities are only social and don’t determine career prospects.


Preparing social media in HS to show you went on cool enough trips? I'm sorry - that's sad.
