As a student at the University of Virginia, I will never honestly understand our rankings of fraternities. It feels like, from personal experiences at date functions, mixers, and any other interactions with sororities on Grounds, that our discernment of girl's Greek Life is at least relatively accurate; however, I've honestly never had that much fun at places commonly considered "top tier" on most fraternity rankings. I know rankings are often biased and ridiculous, but I still don't get why a majority of people throw overhyped (at least to me) brotherhoods like The Hall, KA, or Zete in as top choices. It feels like people have turned a blind eye towards the fact that pledge classes are different every year and fraternities do move up and down. Contrary to what the pseudo "top" fraternities want you to believe, our tiers are anything but solidified: Pledge classes from places considered at the "bottom" (DU) reached as many as 25 guys this year, while other places commonly at the "top" got less than 10 (Zete). It's honestly pretty disheartening to see the abuse that some fraternities take on here. You don't have to get along, but you definitely shouldn't be so close-minded about the system and its members as a whole. Fraternity rankings aren't about how much wealth nationals or the particular chapter has accumulated in its banks, or about the house's distance from mad bowl, it's about how much fun you've had spending time with the people that call themselves Brothers.
