<strong>Subject:</strong><br />what really matters in a "rank"<br /><br /> Poster Message:
As someone who as been in greek life at VT and recently graduated, I've never really understood what the "rankings" that people always talk about are based on. It seems as though these "top tier" sororities are labeled as such because they are "hot", get attention from guys, like to party 24/7, and are apathetic about the true values that really are what make up a sorority (ritual, philanthropy, sisterhood, leadership positions, etc). When did the defining criteria for a "good" sorority become getting the most likes on instagram, having the hottest pictures, and getting the most guys? I think what really makes a sorority "top" or "good" is they're involvement on campus and within their sorority, their passion for each other and their philanthropy, and their ability to see themselves as equal to the rest of the greek community, not above or better than anyone else. When you graduate, no one cares what sorority you were in or how good, popular, hot they were. They care about you as a person and your character. Don't spend 4 years wishing you were the hot ones or thinking that because you are "hotter" that you are somehow better than the other thousands of girls that are also apart of greek life at Virginia Tech. Be nice, be passionate about the history that you are a part of and make a difference. Love your sisters and love the things that make your sorority what it is. Challenge your sisters to grow and to grow the sorority. Don't talk down on each other, because in reality, many of the sororities that are considered top tier have mean girls and very little involvement.
