But...

Poster Message:
There is a difference between bashing and being honest. This is maybe the most cut throat recruitment in the country, and one of the schools where being greek matters the most. So, when girls are dropping and they say they don’t want to be greek, that’s fine. There’s plenty to do at Ole Miss without going greek. But when they start asking questions like, “Should I COB?” they seem to be indicating that they still want to be greek, and in which case in virtually all circumstances, your chances are never better as a freshman. COB, girls join every year through this channel but it is only for the smaller chapters. XO and DDD are not magically going to COB you. The chapters that COB are the same chapters that variable quota is designed to give huge pledge classes (which honestly may even mean they may not COB, or not as many girls, as usual). So when girls are saying “I can’t see myself joining this chapter, should I COB?” it’s usually the same chapter. 99% of the time. Sophomores? It is so much harder. Think connections matter when you are a freshman? Unless you are one of the most accomplished girls on campus holding high profile achievements that would be out of range for most frehman, with perfect GPA, AND with multiple actives calling you a close friend, your chances of doing better as a sophomore are virtually impossible. You’ll get asked back to the same chapters…maybe…but many of those may cut you this time around. Most girls do worse, not better. Most girls are not bashing. They are trying to give these girls the wake up call that it is these specific chapters for them or nothing for the rest of their time at Ole Miss. What they want to do with this truth is up to them, but ignoring it just prolongs the heartbreak. Anybody who tells you otherwise does NOT know the system here.
