I think there are misconceptions about sororities, but not the way they’re explained here. Yes people underestimate the commitment, but outside of big events (recruitment, philanthropy, initiation), the weekly commitment is relatively low if you are not in leadership. Yes it is expensive, but the cost presented during recruitment is accurate unless you are late paying, which incurs fees on the billing system NOT with the chapter. Some chapters charge fees for late things or do not have all-inclusive dues, but you can ask about that during recruitment. Most chapters vote on their own budgets. If you are a potential new member and a chapter is out of your budget, do not feel pressured to join! You can exit recruitment at any time and no one will judge you for it, sometimes sororities are overpriced and sometimes they just aren’t for everyone. Once you have joined, almost every chapter has options for your membership if you cannot commit to the time or finances. Losing a member does not always mean that dues go up, and having more members does not always mean dues go down. Lots of things are estimates and prices in Toronto are always crazy anyway. Yes, people are shallow, and yes, there is drama, but it is unfair to say that it what all chapters are like. People steal boyfriends and cheat whether they’re in greek life or not let’s be so fr. It is possible to meet friends or make a difference, if you prioritize meeting the right people and prioritize your time in the chapter. I have met people, inside my chapter and out, who I know will be in my life forever. I have also met people I wont see ever again after graduation. In a chapter full of 30-50 people, you wont like everyone and you wont be friends with everyone. At the end of the day, a sorority is not a club so you have to put in some extra time/money to be able to have the benefits. Just focus on what you want to get out of your time and do what is right for you
