“Old row” superiority complex
by: PnmI’m a pnm coming from CA and I keep seeing posts and comments hyping up “old row” fraternities and sororities. Why is there a superiority complex? What makes southern people deserving to be hyped up? I personally find the sororities with girls from all over the country much more inviting, but I cannot wrap my head around why being in “old row” somehow makes you a “top” fraternity or sorority. Like what makes being around all southern people so special hahah? Someone please help a girl out here

Old Row just an extension of high school for a lot of people, they tend feel safer / more secure with themselves when they're coming into college already knowing more people than the girl next to them. To be honest don't worry much of it, only like four of the old row sororities are actually worth the hype anyways.

Pretty much, old row has a lot of girls that came from the same high school and like to cling to people that already know them. Tbh I don’t know why there’s any hype around it, but I promise you’ll do fine in rush. You don’t need to be a southern bell to be in a sorority here

Old Row works really well for in-state girls who have families who attended Bama, have friendships from high school, clubs, camps and Community. There’s absolutely nothing wrong with Old Row. It works well for many IS girls. OOR fit in better in New Row in my opinion. You’ll find your peeps in New Row but if you were born and raised in Alabama, it makes perfect sense to be drawn to OR. It’s really that simple. It’s not a judgment call in OR or NR. Plain and simple.
