Moms need to get off this page. Greekrank is for college students. Let your daughters fight their own battles. IU's Greek system is unique. It is certainly not the fairest or most inclusive, but neither is life in general. My best friend goes to Wisconsin where the Greek system is far less competitive, but still is selective. After rush this year, she said that a ton of moms flooded their greekrank page with posts about how Wisco's rush is unfair and that everyone should get a bid and deserves to be part of Greek life. Just no. It's like the parents who thinks that every kid on the rec department soccer team should get a trophy for just participating. Life isn't fair, and sometimes achievement is arbitrary. Get over it. My rush at Indiana didn't end up like I thought it would, but I didn't let the houses that "rejected" me determine my self-worth. My room mate at the time didn't get a bid at all, and guess what? She survived, and is still an awesome person and has found other ways to have a fulfilling experience at IU. She said that she just looked at rush like one long job interview, and she for whatever reason just didn't get the job---a much more mature and REALISTIC outlook than demanding that a process that's worked for the organizations involved and been in place for decades must completely change because of her disappointment in its outcome.
