Lets talk about Greek life in general, for anyone wanting to rush this fall. For girls, you will be asked to showcase yourself for only a few minutes multiple times a day to many girls you don't know. To say this is a horrible way for a house to select its members and for freshman to make a supposedly four year commitment (more on that in just a bit) is obvious. Guys have a different process where they have longer amounts of time to get to know potential members and while mistakes are still made, taking an entire summer to get to know someone and then asking that person to join increases the chance that both house and potential new member are on the same page. Once you are accepted by a fraternity or sorority your freshman year will be spent mostly pomping, cleaning up, giving blood, and begging family to give money to the house philanthropy. If you are into skit during homecoming or greekweek you get to put on makeup and dance around in costumes for a few weeks. Sophomore year most houses require members to live in house. Most of this time is spent complaining how loud and cramped it is along with lack of privacy. Remember the supposed four year commitment mentioned up above? Junior year most members get their own apartment to have their own bedroom and bathroom at equal or many times significantly less cost than the dues they pay for living in a fraternity/sorority house. Most juniors and seniors are long gone from the chapter house. Greek life is 2 years mostly, maybe some will involve themselves for year 3, but only the ambitious ones that want an executive position to any list of accomplishments when starting their job search. That's the reality of Greek life now on campus. Freshman year you do things the sophomores don't want to do, sophomore year you spend time in house waiting to get your own place, junior and senior years your gone like you were never affiliated in the first place. One other note, please don't think you need to be greek as a female to have a social life. Parties on or off campus need girls, and nobody cares if those girls are greek or independent. Go into freshman year excited for the hew opportunities you have in front of you, don't let any particular house make you feel good or bad about yourselves. College life, not necessarily greek life, is awesome.
