real talk

I definitely agree that there is a place for everyone and that girls should give all of the houses a legitimate chance, but let's not say that those that end up in higher tiers are "better" than the girls who got dropped. We all know so much of recruitment is who you know and where you're from, which definitely sucks for girls without connections (I was one myself), but it's the reality.

I know for a fact that I am just as good as someone in a "top tier" sorority. I actually know that I fit very well with the girls in top houses, and I know that for sure. I didn't get cut because I "wouldn't have fit in there." If anyone got cut then it's because they either didn't know someone in the sorority, they were an upperclassmen, they weren't pretty enough, or their parents didn't make enough money. Yes there may be people who definitely wouldn't have fit in, but it's not about being able to fit in for some of us.

Telling someone to suck it up and join a sisterhood that fits her is basically telling someone they weren't 'good enough" to join a top tier sorority and that they should just deal with the fact that they aren't good enough and go find some other girls who also weren't good enough and band together with them.
