I don’t want to take away from your negative experience but you’re being too general to say people are “gaslighting” freshmen. Everyone knows rush is superficial; there’s a dress code, the recruitment chairs have to stick to a script, and everyone— members and PNMs— dresses their very best and does their makeup. Rush is a superficial process, sure. But I’ve met girls in my house that will be friends for life. I feel like I have a home for the first time ever— a place where I am welcome, where I can be myself, and where I’m celebrated. Not everyone feels that way— not even close to it. But Greek life does SO much more than highlight the superficiality of life, or give you a time and a place each week to drink. I’m also in a house that people say is on the “faker” side, and maybe it looks like that from the outside, but I’ve honestly never been a part of anything more real. I respect you and what you’ve faced, but there are some really positive things to be said about Greek life too. Everyone, especially freshmen, should know that.
