rushing numbers?

Selective? Is that what you psychos here are calling it? Darling, as a sorority woman at Ole Miss I can tell you we are beyond selective and we can still rush more girls than you, pledge more girls, and have a stronger greek community because better girls come to school here.

You ladies are selective because nobody of quality goes to IU, they come down South. Hell, even Mizzou is a better choice. They had the second largest rush in the nation and only one in three girls got bids there. That's being selective by choice, not because you have to be.

Keep talking up your pathetic greek system because none of us real Greeks want it. You should visit Ole Miss some time and see what a REAL greek system looks like. I'll even wait to your on the plane home to bless your little heart. Mkay?

Blahblahblah go away and mind your own business Greek chat mom! We don't care what you think and our nationals are obviously fine with the exclusive way we do things.

You can't honestly be saying that you are selective or exclusive with a straight face because pictures online line don't lie.... Really who care and thankfully girls of all looks can rush and get into houses but you calling the IU Greek system selective is a JOKE.

Also, like 21 and 22 year old women on other Big Ten, SEC or ACC or universities on par with UI size and caliber.....our women WANT to live out of house!! If you have real sisterhood it will never be broken and certainly won't by living out your senior year as your ready and transition yourself to graduation.

Go away. You don't go here and aren't even in school. We don't care what you think about the way we do things.

Touché...you do care as you clearly are stalking this thread and answering in simple minded secular ways.....good luck in the real world where absolutely Not a single person cares about the IU Greek system.....which I know as I am a part of.

Clearly, you have no sense of irony, nor grammar (ending your post in an preposition). You berate age-appropriate members of the IU Greek system for posting the reality of IU's recruitment system, but don't find it at all dysfunctional/irrational that you, a self-proclaimed member of the "real world", are also stalking a thread on a collegiate website and doling out gems of Greek wisdom regarding a system in which you are not a part? Hi, pot? Meet kettle.

Hey Kettle or Engkish Major....am I missing anything?!?
Actually the ironic part is I am a senior in a house but I'm pre med....though the good news is I've been accepted into my MD program already so yep, I will be part of the real world next year. Anywho, the fact that I'm part of am elite, selective, exclusive Greek system that you are so proud of, played 0 I mean ZERO, role in how I got into med school.
You keep telling yourself whatever it is that you need to to boost your self esteem about our Greek System but the truth is the truth. Ponder it over planning how you can stay active for a super senior year since you seem to think you talk for all of us in wanting to continue to live it.....I will be planning for real life.
Oh, and humor my friends and I and try not to respond in 3 mins.

You certainly have an active fantasy life!

Hahahahahahahahahaha. Seeking validation much? Omg, Med School? You must be brilliant!!! And so much more mature than everyone else in the Greek system of which you claim to be a part!

So, I'm wondering...why are you a sorority member here if the system pains you so? Maybe a better question is, since the recruitment system at IU is so awful, have you done anything to try and change it? You know, since participating in the treachery would just be perpetuating the problem and make you complicit? Oh, and btw, pretty sure that continuing your education doesn't actually qualify for the traditional definition of the "real world".

amen "some advice" Most girls want to live in the house for at least a couple of years, which is why we have the bed quota system. That means not everyone makes it, and it is hurtful, but we move on.

Oh right Mizzou person. I'm sure some sorority member there has all the time and interest in trolling some other school's GR. Go away mom! The longer you hold onto this bitterness the longer your rejected daughter will take to get over it.

Trying decide what's more pathetic...Actually being a current student at another school and trolling IU's page or being a 40-60 year old woman pretending to be a Mizzou student trolling IU's page. Either way, get a life.

i'm def into the tall blondes

Speak it sister. You are so right.

That was a made up stupid response.
As are the two responses above.

I just finished rush as well and did receive a bid to a house and couldn't be happier. 80% of my floor didn't receive a bid and I know so many others that didn't either. Not one of these girls would write that. That's written by an active pretending to have been cut...NO girl who just went through rush would write that or even care to.

I'm so happy to be in my house and feel lucky to have made it through and love IU but this whole thread is terrible starting from where the first poster said we like our elite system....no we don't but it's the card we have been forced with. I don't take pride looking at all my friends who are bidless and saying chalk it up to us being an elite system. Then you have the top thread right now ripping on two houses, real elite.

Change will come and hopefully it's the 17's who bring it.

You'll feel different in a year, trust me. Unless you're in one of those poor chapters without houses.
