sororities

I'm in a sorority and I said the negative things about my organization as well as the good things! Just because I wanted to be super truthful about everything for you. But, I still love my sisters and everything we stand for, even if we're not perfect. Honestly, at the end of the day pick the girls you see yourself being friends with and being able to call your sisters. Who cares what anyone else thinks? It's about what YOU think.

thanks for all the valuable advice! I plan on going into recruitment being myself, as I have no interest in tiers or anything. that being said, is each sorority equally competitive when it comes to getting a bid? I know temple only has 5, and I don't have my heart set on anything in particular, but which ones are considered the most selective/hardest to get in to and why?

To be honest, all the sororities are great and have their weak points too. One person can think a sorority is awesome while another thinks they're annoying or weird. All of the sororities have many girls in them, and they're all different and can be interpreted different to everyone. It's not really about others' opinions, it's about which sorority turns out to be the best fit for you when going out for recruitment. I have met girls in every sorority on campus and all have been extremely nice to me and respectful. My advice, as a girl in a sorority, is to not listen what others' have to say. If you spend too much time worrying about what some people think of a certain sorority, you will never be happy with your choice.

I wouldn't say one sorority is harder to get into than another. Each sorority has to take in a minimum number of girls (I think in Fall 2013 it was around 50-60), and TU Greeklife Administration dictates a lot about the numbers each org has to take because of the high numbers going out for recruitment each year.
