should you be in a sorority?

by:    

If you're on this site because you want to know what recruitment has in store for you, you're probably taken aback with the sheer meanness you've seen on this site. You may be wondering if this life is for you. Of course you can talk to your high school friends, your mom's sorority friends, or research on the internet to find out what it's like. I didn't research. I just went into it blindly.

After I accepted a bid and then dropped out during new member period, I found an OU Daily article written by a sorority girl about life in this same house house. It really opened my eyes.

You can find it here: You can read it here: www.oudaily.com/opinion/column-are-you-sure-joinin g-the-greek-system-is-right/article_207f9f8b-b98c- 520b-b1cc-1d80e036ba02.html NOTE: you need to remove any spaces if they show up when this gets posted.

As for me, I didn't join another sorority because of the type of things described in this article. Now I realize that not every house is like that. Maybe only that one house. I have good friends that are very happy in there houses and I almost wish I were in a house too. Oh well, it's a little too late.

But all in all, I'm glad my eyes were opened to what some houses will do to get new members. This house will probably flood this site with a lot of mean comments, blaming this house or that house for posting this article.

But the truth is it was posted by someone not in any house at OU.

GPB is back to bashing the same house again with the same tired article from forever ago. GPB has slipped to competing with the bottom houses and the house in the article has surpassed their house. I'm guessing the gphi who constantly bashes that house had both on pref nite and mistakingly thought gphi was the better house. So she spends her life on this site. Apparently fixated on the delusion her house is on the level of top houses and seems to be obsessed specifically with DDD.

Gamma Phi girl now pretends she's not in any house LOL I'm sure they all wish that. How many people will that girl continue to pretend to be???

The original poster nailed it. She predicted that the Alpha Phis would blame this post on girls from certain houses (obvs going to be GPB or DDD since she's been ragging on them for a while now). It's too bad that she couldn't restrain herself and just discuss the article.

So true. Everyone knew who you would blame. It must suck to know that there are lots of people who feel the same way about your house. And yes I read it. And yes I know other APhis who feel the same.

What's really sad about the article is that some of the girls she's talking about are now juniors. They're still here, still perpetuating the same kind of house. No wonder that one of their members causes so much trouble and dissension on this board. Apparently that's how the whole house is.

What's really sad is that your GPB house is so pathetic it has to dredge up nasty articles on another house. Sorry your house has nothing good about it,but that's no other houses fault. There are at least 7 houses better than GPB just ask any one from any house who actually attends here instead of reading the GPB girls posts answering herself and pretending to be other houses.

Too bad you can't read. This has nothing to do with Gamma Phi. I'm not in that house or any house. I was in Alpha Phi and dropped out as I explained. Blaming others for your problems won't solve them.

I was a GPB and dropped so I understand. I would have stayed in Alpha Phi.

She got on here and wrote two hateful comments but chose not to reply to the questions you asked. I wonder what she's not telling...

Really sad article. I can't imagine being in a house without a great sisterhood. I don't blame her for getting out and I think it's brave for the original girl who posted this to tell her story.

This is a story that needs to get out there, especially since A Phi is trying to claw their way to the top by being so hateful about every house that they see is above them. It looks like things haven't changed there in the last couple of years. Too bad...

Nah APhi has done well the last 2 yrs. Lots of girls choose them over GPhi on pref night. So Gphi keeps writing negative things about them. It's the gphi girl or girls who bump this post up over and over. It's not surprising they've fallen from mid tier to the bottom the last two yrs. A couple good words to describe them is jealous and obsessed.

Again you're blaming the story on some other house when the poster was clear that she's not in any house. That doesn't make your house look good. APHIs should just own up to their mistakes and try to do better. That the honest thing to do. Blaming, lying, and distracting are middle school tactics that make others (including the PNMs you're presumably trying to recruit with these tactics) respect you even less.

I know it drives the GPB girls crazy they all got cut from APhi. I'm actually surprised you GPHIs would bring up the article. It's not new news and you still have to take the APHIs leftovers.

Sorry you are stuck in loserville but that's obviously where you belong. The system really does work.

I'm tired of this blame game. What I want to know is whether Alpha Phi has overcome their distaste about having African American girls. I don't know any who are so I'm asking for real.

I don't know the answer to the question above, but I do hope that any of you who have alpha phi friends, ask them to stop the bullying. It's bad for OU greek and it's really bad for their house. If we don't stick together as a community, it's hard to encourage others to join us. I'd hate to see a bully make people lose interest in the system.

Hi Gphi you are obssessed
