Ah, that time of year -- sorority recruitment -- where we find ourselves spending too much time in the guilty pleasure that is watching sorority recruitment videos. Usually a well-edited mix of time lapses set against pop techno, girls on speedboats, the latest trends in bikinis, and of course, convertibles cruising coastlines and/or desert backroads. Here are this semester’s best sorority recruitment videos....

Most visitors who come to GreekRank.com aren’t here to browse the site. You, fellow Greek collegiate, are likely not interested in the latest srat rankings at a university you didn’t know existed. More often than not, you’re probably only here to scope out the discussions on your own school only. And fair enough....

#1 Miami University in Oxford, OH
MU comes in on top in regards to highest number of users viewing, voting and creating discussions. With over 31,000 discussions, Miami is our most active school. What are the Redhawks talking about? Words to the wise! The most upvoted thread is a reminder from a recent sorority pledge to take your bid with a grain of salt. MU has some of the hardest to get into “top-tiered” sororities and may be one of the most competitive schools to rush. If you didn’t get into your top tier pick, don’t take it personally we're told.
#2 Pennsylvania State University in University Park, PA
While GreekRank.com provides rankings based on user-submitted votes, PSU users are busy posting discussion threads with their own pledge class and overall rankings. Each fall, spring, end-of-year, and “going-into-break,” numerous users will submit what they consider to be the top fraternities and sororities at PSU. The conclusion? There is none -- no one has seemed to agree yet.
#3 Indiana University in Bloomington, IN
Find out the latest in campus happenings and Greek life news on IU's discussion threads. Students are most vocal and curious about who’s throwing down on Friday, charter revocations, pledge class appeals and who’s moving in where. With 41 fraternities and 27 sororities at the school, we can't deny there’s more going on in Bloomington than we thought.
#4 University of Maryland at College Park, MD
The University of Maryland’s discussion page might be more like a Q&A, with incoming classmen wondering what to expect during rush and Greek week and how fraternities are tiered. While UMD also has plenty of user-submitted rankings like PSU, students can always count on responses when they ask a question -- and on receiving plenty of down and up votes.
#5 Ohio State University in Columbus, OH
With Ohio State having cracked down on Greek life this past fall, and then resuming activities this spring, there’s a lot of debate on what’s next and how each fraternity has fared. We also noticed that on OSU’s discussion board, the general, user-submitted rankings take on a more in-depth approach. "Top Fall Frats" or "Spring Srat Rankings" is swapped for more in-depth “guides” to rush week, reputations and recommendations.

GreekRank values the following categories: Looks, Popularity, Classiness, Campus Involvement, Social Life, Sisterhood.

We took a look at our own rankings, also considering academics, and then dived further into studying specific chapters to determine which 8 chapters are some of the most well-balanced across a country. Here’s who we strongly feel deserves to be on the list....

Before taking off for winter break, most sororities took the time to decorate their house for the holidays. Many simply set up a Christmas tree and maybe a wreath/garland.

Let’s take a look at some of the chapters from across the country that win when it comes to holiday spirit...

Society tends to view Greek Life in a negative light—typically as a group of people who care just a little too much about partying. While Greek life will provide you with a more active social life, this is actually only a minor aspect of what being Greek is about. Check out these chapters from each of the 50 states...
