pledge class rankings

yaaaasssssss

Pi Phi - Pretty unremarkable. I think last year's pc really worked against them. A lot of the good, hot party girls went Alpha Phi, so Pi Phi ended up with more leftovers than usual. New mems are split 50/50 their usual crazy girls and some calmer, nicer ones. Doesn't seem as social climby as last year, which might be a good thing and like Kappa might fix their reputation a little bit. Truth is I haven't heard much from them since bid day, which is unusual and kinda sad for Pi Phi. Couple of real annoying ones though.

DG - Lost a lot of their favorites to Alpha Phi, but also probably some to Kappa just based on the character of some of Kappa's new mems. Not as hot as last year, but hotness has never been a deciding factor for DG so the last year or so was probably a fluke with more of the good-looking girls with character choosing them than normal. Back to just being nice, cute girls who will still be pretty social and keep up with their slowly more outgoing reputation. Nothing super special, but still a good option for girls who aren't quite golden triangle material or want to be more of a stereotypical sorority girl.

AEPhi - Biggest pc, which tends to not be a good thing since it means they got girls who otherwise wouldn't have received bids. The girls in their pc are more like their seniors than their sophomores or juniors: chill party girls who aren't super sorority. Nice enough, but huge range of looks and personality from girls you could have mistaken for the golden triangle to girls you're surprised are in AEPhi instead of AOPi. Definitely fun though, they're always out and not always hot messes like some others.

KD - Solid second recruitment. They ended up with a fair amount of girls who preffed them first over other chapters and others who were okay with it being their second choice. This makes for an interesting mix, but mostly happy girls which is a big step up for them. Also NOT the biggest pc unlike last year so that's another thing working in their favor. I think we can consider them tied with ChiO or even above it at this point. Pretty good sisterhood, care about their philanthropy, and have their stuff together. Keep an eye on them.

ChiO - Becoming sort of irrelevant. Still very much the quirky, hipster sorority, but losing more girls to other sororities with each passing year. Their pc has very few standouts, and has been pretty quiet on campus since bid day. Most of them seem happy to be ChiO, so that's a plus for them. If they don't get it together they're going to lose lower-middle tier to KD and be firmly on the bottom. Most of the chapter probably wouldn't care though, since they're all in it for the sisterhood and that won't really change.

AOPi - Impressed with the quality of girls in their PC, if not the quantity (girls didn't accept bids and they ended up having to COB right after bid day). Much cuter than previous years, and "cute" is probably the best way to describe AOPi at this point. Nice, non-threatening girls who might not have a found a home otherwise but who are going to make the best of their sorority experience. Very strong sisterhood which is definitely their best selling point, and looking like a better option than previous years.

This isn't accurate. None of this is accurate. You can't judge any pledge class based on "looks" because different people have different tastes. Every pledge class has attractive girls, and which pledge class you may find the most attractive could differ from another person's opinion. Moreover, the fact that anyone would judge a pledge class based on looks is shallow, childish, and honestly just ridiculous. We go to Wash U; we are here to receive a good education and get degrees that will help us do incredible things in the world. Critiquing girls based on looks, personality, and how social they are is not why we attend this school.
