greek week top five?

I think AXO, Phi Mu, and Sigma Kappa will all place this year. And they deserve it given their effort so far. They're working well with their pairing and getting the job done. I guess houses that get their 1st choice for pairing every year don't know the struggle of being lower and middle tier houses. It's all about getting along regardless of your stereotype or if you party with said house. I feel for ya ADPI, though. I respect you girls so much.

I'll out myself as an ADPi senior right now and say that I'm upset we lost our chance to compete this year because, let's face it, our pairing was the best one in the group. And it does make me a little upset that some houses have decided not to try because they think it's unfair they got a bad pairing.

I dunno, I think it's funny that when the bottom tier complains they can't do their best because of the fraternities they get paired with, the top tier pretends like that's "just the way it is" and you have to just deal with it. But the moment they're put in a similar situation they act like children.

My prediction for Top Five in no order.

1. KD, they'll probably win skit because they've got AEPi on their side and KD always does well in skit and service

2. Sigma Kappa. They'll probably place in skit because they've proven themselves pretty good at it and they're in second place for the blood drive, also great in skit

3. AXO. They were my dark horse pick for winner and still are. Second best pairing in the whole thing, generally hard working house.

4. ATO. Maybe? They'll killing it all by themselves. If my house doesn't win GW, I want ATO to take it because these boys are busting their asses.

5. Phi Mu. If Phi Mu can pull off a skit then they could take second or even first in GW. Their sports teams are very underrated and always much better than anyone expects. And without ADPi's soccer team in the mix, I think Phi Mu could take soccer and maybe one more sport.

where has kappa been?? Aren't they trying to protect their title of gw queens? lol

You're really trying to call other houses pathetic after you got kicked out?

All I ever here from PNMs is "I don't want to pledge any house that didn't place in Greek Week" said no one ever.

Maybe the houses that work hard during Greek Week are the ones that are trying to prove themselves. And maybe the houses that don't try hard are the ones with nothing to prove?

I just think the effort put forth by the so-called "top" houses has been a joke so far. I hope the few sororities who are actually working their butts off shine. Having "lower tier" houses win Greek Week would be good for the Greek system as a whole. Maybe we can even get rid of the shaming of houses. I'm in a house that's considered top, and I'm embarassed by our lack of participation, just because some girls don't like our pairing. And I even hope they do random pairings next year, so the whiners don't get their way. Unpopular opinion, I know, but this whole fiasco just illustrates the immaturity of people who should behave better.

seriously.. ATO and SK.. both NEW HOUSES are in the lead for blood?? thats not something that other houses can just carry.. i dont get how chi o and kappa and theta can not at least place in blood

It's just the bottom tier houses that think Greek Week is a big deal. I mean, it's fun and everything. But I defy anyone to tell me that they recruited a better pledge class because they made a bigger effort five months earlier and placed in Greek Week competition. I can't ever remember having a conversation that even mentioned Greek Week during rush. It pretty much doesn't matter to PNMs. They've never heard of it.
