What...in the heck happened this year???

The tough thing with these massive numbers is that no one gets a chance to really connect. All the sororities have great things to offer. They all have sisterhood events, mixers, formals, homecoming partners, etc. They all have smart girls, athletic girls, hot girls, dumb girls, party girls, churchy girls, loud girls and introverts. Most girls could be happy in most sororities. But the same girls (or their mamas) that complain that they got cut from the top houses before the sororities "even had a chance to get to know them" are also dropping out of recruitment rather than continuing on and trying to get to know the sisters at the other house. The PNMs are cutting before they bother to get to know those girls. It's all about wanting a reputation. There will always be less popular houses that PNMs decide they are too good for, even if you bring in a new sorority or two.
