dg
by: PNMI really like DG but I am very hesitant in pursuing them during rush, as I have heard from several people that their friends who rushed DG are very unhappy and that their sisterhood is severely lacking. I don't mean to be starting a hate forum but I want other opinions on this. I know people say to rush and form your own opinions, but I have heard people say "I almost rushed DG and I'm so glad I didn't" and that they put on a good show during recruitment but aren't like that once you're in the sorority. Can people give their personal experience with DG members here?

Heard the same thing before I rushed. As a result, I chose not to pursue DG and here's why. In a nutshell, they recruit cliques. If you are part of a clique that is being recruited and you really like them and see yourself in a permanent friend group for the next four years, then enjoy. if you want to have friends outside of your sorority and aren't cliquey, then DG isn't for you. Also, consider if you are on the "fringe" of your group, because if you are, once you rush DG you most likely will be an "outsider/extra", and it will hurt like hell. Just something to think about. Are you cliquey? Do you "mean girl" well? Good for thought.

Pursued them until pretty much the end, and they were super nice to me during the first few rounds but I had the same apprehensions as you. I ended up pledging a lower tier sorority and couldn't be happier. Everyone focuses so much on tiers but once you're in the sorority it really doesn't matter that much. I guess it all depends on what you're looking for. I preferred to be with a bunch of genuine girls and hang out with the frats where I don't have to worry about creepy dbags. But with choosing that path I lost "popularity" but this isn't high school it doesn't matter if I sit with the cool kids during lunch. Everyone says be yourself and trust the system. A lot of PNMs don't listen to that and end up getting hurt. But it's honestly the best advice that anyone can offer you. You'll end up where you're supposed to be even if it doesn't seem evident at first. Idk sorry about the little rant.

probably the most accurate read on DG that i've seen in awhile.
love my DG friends to death but I still don't get why they do the recruiting friend groups approach. it's stupid and basically beside the point of joining a sorority.
BUT that being said if you think you fit with DG then go with DG. don't second guess it.
