sorority comments

As a girl who knew little about rush when I went through many years ago, I can tell you this: I wanted to pledge a group that was SUPER good at the school I was attending and cared NOTHING about what it would do for me after those 4 years.

This generation of Greek students is very short-sighted and does not see much beyond the sunset of each day. They generally feel very entitled and, for the most part, are used to having someone to clean up after them (mom & daddy). I know this because I currently work with college students.

Now don't get the wrong idea - I love students!! But, ask anyone in education and they'll tell you - this generation is very much unlike any other in respect to thinking beyond the 4 yrs of college.

right on! More college students need to look past today and more towards the future. I knew when I rushed I wanted a strong national sorority. My older sisters were in strong national sororities at other schools and the alum chapters and networking they have experienced has been amazing for them. You can only get that with a strong national chapter.

Did you pledge your legacy?

No, I did not.

My sisters' sororities are not here, but are very strong nationally.

Well, anyhow, Panhellenic will pick from the four that make presentations. How the chapter selected performs during colonization won't depend just on them but how Ole Miss and the existing chapters choose to welcome the colony. Expansion should force Ole Miss to think more panhellenically (is that a word?) but our manners and good breeding will definitely be tested.

We know that Ole Miss needs more sororities but based on the comments here, I wonder if the new chapter(s) will be welcomed by the existing ones. Seems like there are many factors involved at UM.

they don't seem very welcoming. I feel sorry for the new chapters.

look at the behavior of some of the Chi Omegas. It is making all sororities look bad.

With the Chi O hate! If you actually cared about keeping the greek life at Ole Miss to a certain standard, you would know this is probably the worst, most ineffective place to be voicing your concern. Who is going to trust the word of someone who even comes on this negative, biased website?
