rankings?
by: Confused PNMJust confused about what "tiers" and "rankings" have to do with being apart of a Fraternity and Sorority. What real like implications does it have ? Do people treat you differently based on if your from Chi o or AGD? From Sig chi or Lamda? does it really matter? or is it like High School all over again.

But I liked my high school friends so I'm good. Seriously though all the mean girls from my Indiana high school are concentrated in the same IU sorority. The new crop probably already has their space reserved, because it's not by accident that so many girls from a single high school are in the same sorority. The good news is because I am not as "high-tier" as they are, I rarely see them.

Tier doesn't really matter when you get older and in a house. Really it's only catty business and only affects you if you pay attention to it. Even though I'm in a "higher tiered" sorority, I just focus on loving and having a good time with my sisters and leave the h.s. bs behind

Coming to this site around this time of year always makes me sad because I know there are hundreds of girls going into rush who's only knowledge about my sorority comes from anonymous rankings. I was one of those girls too! What you should know:
1. Bottom tier houses still have pairs every weekend. I still get asked to fraternity formals and date parties. I have had basically the same social experience as top tier girls except with a different set of fraternities.
2. You might get some backhanded compliments... "Wow you're so pretty, I can't believe you're an XYZ" You learn to shrug it off but rarely will someone say something outright mean like on greek rank in real life.
3. I have friends who joined houses based on social status that are super unhappy with their life.
4. Basically when you turn 21 the social scene moves to the bars and no one cares what house you're in.
Joining my sorority is literally the best thing that has ever happened to me and I genuinely love my sisters so much. Good luck with recruitment and don't be ashamed of what houses you do or don't get asked back to. :)

If it doesn't matter why do you feel the need to point out your in s "higher-tier?" I mean your post would have been more impactful without it.
