Why join Greek life 2020

I have not heard that? Does this mean no football games as well? Honestly if it’s true then I am not sure it would be worth it, if you have to pay for it yourself. It’s pretty expensive first year. I hope your cousin is wrong.

I agree with you. The reason we want to go through recruitment and join a sorority is because of what it’s been like for years! I’ve been waiting for this for a long time! The excitement!! Now, I’m not so sure. It’s just so sad if this is true.

I understand your concerns, but I am guessing they will be adjusting the costs accordingly. They will only charge you for what you can actually participate in.

Joining Greek life is so much more than frat parties and functions. It’s about the unbreakable bonds you’ll make with your sisters. These girls will become your people and your support system. They’ll encourage you, be your shoulder to cry on, your study buddies, and your comedy relief. Parties and functions are just a bonus. ❤️

As a junior in a sorority I also wouldn’t go through recruitment this year if you’re not going to get to have normal bid day and functions and stuff. Also just a tip, anyone can go to frat parties, you don’t have to be in a sorority. But that’s if they even get away with parties this year. It’s a lot of money to spend just to make “bonds” when there are 28000 people at this school that you can have a bond with for free. Maybe wait until spring or 2021

At risk of sounding rude, I’m going to just say this: if you’re this hesitant solely because you might not be able to attend frat parties or functions then maybe Greek life isn’t for you. Sadly we don’t know what to expect for recruitment, meetings, functions, etc right now but we will do whatever we have to and make it work. If you care about something, making it work is just what you do! If you’re not a roll with the punches kind of girl, this might not be the year for you to rush. You’ll just need to decide what your reasons are for wanting to be in a sorority in the first place. Only then will you know if it’s “worth it”.

Hey PNM,

As someone who also pays for my dues, I know where you are coming from. I think it's a lot easier for people who don't pay their dues to jump on here and tell you it's not a big deal when there are no events happening. I would register for recruitment if I were you (I know it is expensive) and you can always drop it later once we have more information. I myself am asking some of the same questions as you and I absolutely love my sorority, but as a college student with bills to pay, thousands of dollars wasted is a lot, because I will have my friends in my sorority whether or not I am a member, you sort of do only pay for all of the events and such once you make your good friends.
