sorority comments

I completely agree. I think there isn't much of a middle tier any more. Just top and bottom, bottom starting with kd

Ok AOII. Stop ranking yourself to be much higher than you should be. We all know how horrible of a rush you have. Yes, you win a few great things during the year, but numbers show who is more successful. You still are down there with ADPI.

Three tiers:

Kappa/Chi-O/PiPhi
Tri-Delt/KD/ZTA
AOII/ADII

Hard to argue.

agreed with the last post. three tiers, kd and zeta are pretty much up there with tri delt and aopi and adpi are at the bottom.
really you can't argue with that.
axo and phi mu have a chance to make a name for themselves but right now they have no rank because they haven't had a chance yet.

website is so stupid and PNM's should not listen to anything that is being said and should go where they feel the most comfortable! Every house at the UofA is good because the greek life is so strong at the UofA.

Here is a ranking of the Spring 2012 Grades (from uagreeks.uark.edu).

1. Pi Beta Phi: 3.445
2. Kappa Kappa Gamma: 3.369
3. Kappa Delta AND Chi Omega: 3.354
4. Zeta Tau Alpha: 3.328
5. Delta Delta Delta: 3.282
6. Alpha Delta Pi: 3.158
7. Alpha Omicron Pi: 3.107

Mmm...all within hundredths of points of each other... Way to go Greeks! I'd like to see a breakdown of majors, we all know science majors are more difficult than education majors, for example.

All the house grades were well above average. So, what really differentiates them?

Exactly, nothing really differentiates them on the outside. Being greek is being greek. Sorry to be a broken record, but it's honestly about the type of person you are and who you want to be. If you're more chill, like me, then you'll probably prefer certain houses to others no matter what the "rankings" are. It's all about the people who are in them and how you mesh with them, which you won't be able to see until rush or until you hang out with certain girls.

you have to keep in mind that the pledge classes are getting bigger and bigger which means its hard to put a stereotype on the "type" of girls. No matter what sorority you join, there are literally all types of girls in every single house.
