you reap what you sow

by:    

I graduated from a huge west TN high school. Several girls in my class went through rush. Inexplicably, one 'top tier' sororority took a couple of girls from my school who were suspended and arrested, with no great resume either, but 'hot'. Another 'top' took a couple of 'hot' girls with no resume at all and questionable reps. 'Mid teer' Chi O took sweet nice girls with great resumes and good reps. Not 'hot' like the other girls, but cute and well liked. Well guess who got almost ALL the cute sweet talented girls going through rush from the memphis area public and private schools this year??? CHI O!!

CHIO must not have done very well to have posted this. One thing for sure, if the poster is indicative of their new members, they lack a whole lot of class. Guess what? There were other houses that got sweet, nice girls with great resumes AND were "hot." So I guess you might say they were the ones who did better than CHIO. And it's "tier" so you may want to take smart off your list. This post makes CHIO look ridiculous. It speaks volumes of what kind of pledge class they must have gotten.

Here we go! Girls who were cut from their dream house trying desperately to convince themselves the house they ended up is better.

This is actually so true. I went to a smaller private school near Memphis and we were all not impressed with who the top tier pledged last year from our area. Literally everyone I know that was tops at BC pledged Chi O this year. Even parents were commenting on it. I wouldn't have announced it on here but did happen. The other sororities got great girls too I'm sure, but Chi O did get the most Memphis girls who are considered top.

First of all "Agree," how would you know who was top tier? You were not even on campus last year. This is an underhanded attempt to bash a perfectly good chapter, and yes, probably ranked higher than yours by the majority of the campus, both Greek and non Greek. With that being said, the best sororities took girls from many areas and didn't concentrate on one area. That's what brings diversity to a chapter. Diverse houses tend to have better sisterhoods because there are no already formed "cliques." If you were to ask the majority of the girls going through rush who their number one choice was, they probably wouldn't tell you CHIO. There is nothing wrong with that. They kind of stay under the radar, but I love the CHIO's I know. I really don't think the ones I know would approve of the way you girls are bashing another chapter to promote your own.

Why are your parents involved? How do they know who is top? CHIO is embarrassing themselves.

Goodness, this makes CHIO look terrible! The house you are slamming is, like it or not, very popular. I suspect that's why the OP posted this to convince herself that because she got cut from them she has to make CHIO look superb. You failed on that account, and you are not a good example for your house at all. You are making them look like a non-diverse group of snobs, which is nothing like the CHIO's I know. Your sisters would be extremely disappointed.

What house is she slamming? No names were mentioned but Chi O, who she was complimenting? So it's true that top houses took girls who were suspended and all???

Complimenting CHIO????? She obviously is a CHIO. She doesn't name the house but alludes to the fact that another house popular to Memphis girls is subpar, when reality the house she is speaking of is way more popular than CHIO. No doubt the poster was cut from that house and settled for CHIO.

So you are saying it's true this other 'popular with Memphis girls' house took girls that were suspended, arrested....with thousands going through rush??? IF that's the case that explains why they aren't popular with them now.

I am embarrassed for CHIO. This is pathetic. If this is any indication of what kind of girls are in your pledge class, you're in trouble.

I really saw that was more diversity amongst all the chapters this year, I'm sure that chapters that primarily take Memphis girls decided to branch out consciously. I also think that some chapters that don't get many from Knoxville also diversified. Add to this that legacies really impact a lot of ths. Sometimes it is not intentional, it just happens. Which is good. I thought all the chapters improved this year. Sooo many great girls!

This is so true and yes those top 2 last year did just what op said and sowed poorly so reaped poorly this year, from that area anyway. Chi O did get most of the best west TN girls. That doesn't mean they aren't diverse, or didn't get good girls from other places. It also doesn't mean that the other houses didn't get those girls because they are so diverse. They simply did not get the best girls from that particularl area because the rep of their house plumated in that area, when they weirdly cut great girls with great resumes last year for girls with poor reps (and worse) and mediocre to no resume, based only on looks.

Clearly the OP got cut from TriDelt. We all know they recruit from Memphis so we know who she is talking about They are a great house, one of the top, so stop your bashing and stop being bitter. CHIO may have gotten a lot of Memphis girls this year, but honestly the houses that recruited the best this year got a lot more diverse pledge class than CHIO got. Why would you want a house full of girls from one area? This is college. It's time to leave high school behind and branch out!

This was LAST YEAR, and her post presented it as if it were this year.! Why bring this up now? Why bring it up again, if you are not threatened or bitter? Every house has given a bid to at least one person over the years who did not turn out to be a good fit. No house is exempt from this! If she was truly just so happy about her house, you don't have to bad mouth other houses, period!

It looks like CHIO needs to clean up their act a bit! This thread is awful. Bringing down a house to make yours look better shows a complete lack of class. If a member of my house started a thread like this I would be so embarrassed. It makes me wonder what kind of girls they recruited.

There are probably a lot of responses because nobody can believe a new member would post this. I feel sorry for CHIO. It's embarrassing.

Not only does this poster sound like someone who got cut, but someone who got cut LAST YEAR who's still holding a grudge! Really, a whole year later and still bitter? Wow! It's time to be thankful that, as a sophomore , a great house like CHi O thought you worthy of their sisterhood. If they had known this side of you, they would have cut you as well. Time to grow up!

Chi O doesn't seem to hang out on GR 24/7 like others so they probably aren't too mortified about a post that while tacky, is actually accurrate. If it wasn't
True, everyone wouldn't be so defensive and would be shouting 'lies'. However most know it is true, and some obviously even know details given these responses. Don't come to GR to crow about your great pledge class though Chi O, or anyone. Just be happy amongst yourselves. OP didn't say the others did poorly this year either, just that they didn't get the best from a certain area, which is true. It's not because they cut those girls either, but they still git great PCs also.

To I doubt it....what was the purpose of them posting it? To hurt TriDelt? Trust me, TriDelt will be just fine!

I have no idea what the purpose was. Obviously not to 'hurt Tri Delt', who wasn't even mentioned by op, and rush is over. I guess it was just a childish way to say 'haha told you so' about taking girls with poor records and expecting girls from those areas to pick you the next fall. The ironic thing is, it was the multiple people 'defending' TD that confirmed what the OP was saying was true.

I'm more impressed with the Memphis girls who pledged something other than xo or ddd! Way to go girls! You decided to move beyond high school and that is strength of character!
