minorities in greek life

by:    

I'm considering rushing in the future, but I am a black woman and I've heard so many horror stories about minorities and other women like me being mistreated in greek life. How is diversity looking in the sororities and which ones are the most diverse/welcoming? idk much about sdsu greek life so if someone can inform me that'd be great!!

I hope this doesn't come off negative in any way, but I need to know these things for my safety lol

hi hun as a woc in a sorority all i have to say is come with an open mind and remember your worth! i haven't been discriminated or mistreated against during the recruitment process and i think the sororities now are doing a much better job at influencing diversity in sororities this year, don't let it discourage you! <3

Honestly as another WOC in Greeklife if you are going Panhellenic you are basically kinda disqualified from the top houses with few exceptions. But a lot of Greeklife is positive so it just depends where you land.

You will be fine. Trust the system and you will end up in right house IF you get a bid. Be open minded and understand that looks and personality are highly emphasized during recruitment. I can honestly say that I haven’t seen anything malicious but unfortunately as a WOC, we have gotten used to and will continue to be passively treated differently by our peers in general - not just during Greek life. You’ll come across some not so great people. But who cares? If they suck they suck...and not worth your time. You’ll stand out as a beautiful WOC and will take advantage of everything positive that Greek life at SDSU has to offer. Diversity is a mystical unicorn if WOC are not rushing. We want you to rush !!! Your sisters will be ready to welcome you with open arms with goodies.
