Kappa always gets criticized for being so looks focused but when they recruit a class with a few girls who are perhaps 7's vs. 10's, everyone starts saying what happened, they had a bad rush, they are losing their top house status etc. That's just BS, leave them alone, they had the best recruitment return rate (beating out GPHI, DG and APHI), they got the girls THEY WANTED and will continue to be a top house.

How would you know they got best return rate? Only someone in kappa would say that

I just have to say that I was so so so impressed by Theta and Axid this year. Seriously Theta picked up some serious hotties and axid got a pc of girls that actually wanted to be there. Really exciting!

Let's be honest, rankings of houses haven't changed at all. Perhaps Kappa may have dipped a bit but they are still no. 1 followed by DG (who rose a bit with this years very cute class) then GPhi (who also dropped a tad with their mish mosh class).

Then in the second tier, it's still Aphi (who did really well and are on the cusp of breaking into the top), AXO (pretty standard class) and Pi Phi (who's class was just ok).

The biggest shake up is with tri delt, theta, azd and Chio who all did awesome! Will interesting if they are able to retain all of their new members and what the future will hold for these houses.

Seriously though, this made me laugh. I'm a senior, and here's the real deal (no holding back): Kappa did NOT do well this year. After their great class last year, they were solely #1 (opposed to be tied with GPhi), but now I think they are either tied again with GPhi or GPhi is top (they got a really, really great class this year, especially after the mediocre class last year. tbh, I was kinda surprised). DG did get a great class (and MUCH better than last year's totally "yikes" class---again, I was surprised), but I still think they are tied with AXO. AXO got a really great class, much like last year. The only reason DG isn't below them is historical reputation. And APhi did really well, too, but basically the same as AXO and DG. Like I said before, the only thing keeping DG #3 is that they got a really great class this year, and their historical rep of being top tier. I bet if someone from another school ranked the sororities, they'd rank APhi or AXO (or both) above DG. The only other house that REALLY surprised me was AXiD. They did really awesomely. About a third of their new girls could easily be mistaken for top tier pledges. To me, they are now solidly middle tier. Most of the rest of the sororities---PiPhi, Theta, DDD, XO, AEPhi---did about the same as they always do. Theta and DDD are on their way up. AEPhi and XO recruited the same kinds of girls that they always do. PiPhi's class was good, but didn't exceed last year's. Honestly, I thought their spring class last year was REALLY good, and was surprised that they didn't have a crazy amazing rush this fall. I thought SDT was disappointing. I know it's easy to pick on them, but I really do like them. I wish wish wish they would get a physical house. I REALLY think having a permanent home helped AXiD this year, and it would probably benefit them, too.

Come on people, give credit where credit is due. DG had the best class/most attractive class this year and Aphi was slightly behind if not tied with them. Then comes Kappa, not great for them but still better than most, followed by GPhi and AXO.

I think the person above must be a GPhi because I thought their class was good, not great or certainly standout in any way. Sorry to be superficial but like Kappa, there were some uggos that slipped through.

Not sure I understand why GPhi is a top house. They seem nice and fun but are very Midwestern, not all that classy or sophisticated and a bit bland. Plus, they don't even get all the hot Scons/other Midwesterners because those girls went DG, Kappa or even Aphi.
