rush

Don't have a favorite house going in based solely on reputation and rumor. DO use your brain and common sense...if the girls seem fake and disinterested, believe it. If the girls seem genuine and approachable, they probably are. Trying to get into a house, just to be able to say you're in it, never turns out well. This could be the beginning of the best years with true friends, or you could end up miserable. Trust your gut! If you let the process work you'll be fine.

That advice goes for fraternities too.

only correct post on this site

brace yourself for the implicit classism & racism during rush. no one wants to admit that rich girls get into top houses that are overwhelmingly white

smoke before

there are fake/crazy people in every house and it's impossible to go into any sorority loving everyone. go where your gut tells you and things usually work out

if a house cuts you, it's for a reason. they know who will and won't fit in the house better than you do. everything happens for a reason and you will end up in the place you're meant to be. that being said, some great girls slip through the cracks for no reason, and that's no indication of your self worth

know that a lot of girls drop during the week when they don't get their top choice houses. don't be one of those girls. stay through rush and see the house you were put in. if you really don't like it, you can always leave before initiation.
