I am a new member to a sorority here at ole miss. I'm not from mississipi and didn't know a soul when I pledged my sorority. I was so proud that they wanted me just for me, not for who I knew.. But I am having trouble making friends. I feel like all the girls know each other from high school, which isn't really true because girls are from everywhere. I don't want to drop because it's a great house and I love what we stand for but I don't want to pay money to not have friends in it. Any advice? This is an honest question. I've gone to every swap and I go to dinner once or twice a week too. What else can I do?

Go to the house EVERY day. Make an effort to hang out there to study. Do they serve lunch, too? Go to lunch at the house every day that you can. Have dinner there as often as you possibly can. Make an effort to connect with girls in your pledge class. Ask them to go out for coffee. Find girls taking the same classes & ask them to study together. YOU are going to have to put in effort. Getting that bid didn't mean instant BFFs.

Perhaps your big sis can help you with this. They really don't want their new members to drop. I would tell this to your big sis, and see if she can help you out. Be honest and tell her "I don't feel like I've made a lot friends." Maybe she'll start taking you out and putting you under her wing.

Great advice! Also, most chapters have active alumni, or ladies who advice the chapters, these ladies are awesome to talk to!
