Yes, look at philanthropies since they can indicate values, but how I look at values is this: if I'm into academic achievement, then I'm going to want to be in a house where that's highly valued, not where a lot of girls are more into partying - not that houses don't have a mix of both, they do, but some houses have more of certain values than not. Likewise, if I'm into being active in campus activities, then look at the houses where a lot of girls are and where I can be mentored by other sisters. I think when you look at where you feel most comfortable and at home, it's because the chapter personality - which includes values - appeals to you. Pay attention to the general feel of each house and what comes out of your conversations. And remember - you're not choosing the house, the houses do the choosing. That's why it's so important to have an open mind.
