cob or "geed" or ffr 18?? helppp

by: cob i guess

so I came to UW not knowing how big of a deal Greek life would be here, and now that I'm here I really wish I joined a sorority. I just don't really click with anyone in the dorms and the sorority girls seem so nice. BUT i saw from previous posts that COB might be full?? so i'm debating between sticking it out in the dorms for the next 4 years, trying for COB, or rushing next year. But if I rush next year is that even a thing sophomores do?? not really trying to be the one sophomore rushing lol.

also just while i have your attention: are instagram followers a big deal?? i feel like every sorority girl i know has 1,000+ and that is far from what i have.

THANK YOU!

I rushed as a sophomore this year as did many girls I met/know. This year I believe most houses had a sophomore quota which should carry on to next year. Don't stress about it too much, sign up for COB and see how it goes, and if that doesn't work, try FFR next year!

Just stay in the dorms. You sound annoying for caring too much about what you look like and how many Instagram followers you have.

Honestly Greek life here at UW isn’t that big of a deal compared to wazzu. Only 10% of the student body is in Greek life. So in over 45,000 undergraduate students, about only 4,500 or so are in Greek life... it won’t make or break your experience to join Greek life.

not really an apt comparison

wsu is a very different kind of state u--rural, smaller, whiter, fewer international students

greek life is a satisfying niche for some at UW who would be miserable in the dorms here but would be ok in the dorms at wsu

there are way more asocial weirdos in uw dorms

^i don't like your reasoning at all. You're making it sound like non-white and international students are the only reason dorms suck so you can just shut up.

To OP, if you are considering rushing even the slightest bit, do it. Try COB. If it doesn't work out, do FFR next year. Lots of sophomores rush so don't even worry about that.

lazy inference
no statement was made about race or nationality in dorms

Obviously, UW dorms are full of all sorts of weirdos, including whites
The UW also has more weirdos than WSU in general because it's harder to get into. Those party kids with 3.1's aren't going here. Look at the stats, the demographics are different.

Subjectively, the few UW dormies with social skills, no matter their race or nationality, get the F out of there after ruling the pathetic social scene for a year

WSU is a different social scene. Look into how sorority rush went there this year. Yet social people can still have fun there even if they're not greek. Hard to say that about UW. Go enjoy some parties at Terry or Haggett and tell me that's not true.
