things this website gets wrong
by: realest
Tri delt is not falling. they don't suck. girls still want them more than the majority of other houses.
girls don't pick alpha phi over tri delt. or gphi. or dg. or a lot of other houses.
kappa is actually viewed as a really great house. so is adpi.
pi phi is really overrated on here. nobody hears a damn thing about them in real life and nobody has any friends in there for the most part.
basing a house on looks only matters when you're a freshman. you grow out of caring about that by junior year. promise.
axo is still mediocre, i don't care what you say.
there is no set in stone top tier, middle tier, bottom tier. everyones opinion is different. get over yourselves.

Will agree with some of what you said...BUT...
the reason girls would choose tri delt over the other houses you mentioned is because of their philanthropy. One of the biggest sells during recruitment is the emotional(well deserved) tribute to St Judes and the promise to visit St Judes. Other than that, there is not a single reason girls would choose Tri Delt over the other houses you mentioned. And you are stretching it when you say Tri Delt has not slipped. Numbers speak for them selves-that is set in stone. They are currently one of the lowest houses on campus. They have a lot of internal conflict and cliqueness.
Kappa is definitely a house girls love during recruitement. ADPi, not so much. Are they doing better yes, is it a house girls want no. Is it a house girls settle for yes.
AXO is definitely more sought after than ADPi.
And I totally agree that the tiers all depend on what you are looking for, however, there are certain houses that most girls love during recruitment thus putting them at the top of the tier rank.

I don't see why we put so much weight on what pnms think. They literally know nothing about our greek system besides what they see on social media and what they see during the act everyone puts on for recruitment.

And I don't mean that just at what you said but to everyone that keeps posting about what pnms think.

I don't know where you go to school, but it can't be Mizzou. This is what we know as the truth:
TriDelt is a strong house with a strong national, has agreat reputation and is doing just fine.
Some people really like Alpha Phi. Perhaps not more than TriDelt, but yes, sometimes more than GPhi and DG.
Kappa is not a great house. Period. And no one wants Kappa unless they have been cut by all of the top houses.
PiPhi is the gold standard. They put on a great rush, have a great sisterhood and the best return rates of any house. After rush, their loyalty is second to none.
AXO hasn't been just mediocre in years. It is top middle and extremely popular and well-respected.
Tiers might not be set in stone, but statistics show which are the houses with the best return rates and the lowest drop rates. That equals top tier, no matter what lower tier houses would like to believe.

If numbers speak for themselves please explain Tri Delts numbers this year. Curious

You are lost about tridelts rep. They have more chapter closures than any other chapter, they have so many bottom houses and only pay attention to their money getters. Their philanthropy is the absolute best though I'll give them that. Why KKGs founder chose reading as philanthropy I'll never comprehend

Tridelt has what 260 girls and no explanation? They've fallen harder than we all thought.
Girls choose Aphi over DG... Always
Kappa is pretty good, no one ever wants ADPi. You get stuck in that house if you're too socially awkward for other mid houses.
Pi Phi yep.. They're just kind of there. But they are selective so I would still keep them as top.
AXO deserves all the praise they get, primarily since they have really good character.
Sorry OP your house is obviously falling or was never top to begin with. I bet that's tough.

1. My theory is that Delta got rid of all of their grade risks which is why their numbers are so low this time around. The reason they're not COBing is because they can petition PHA to exclude them for the Fall so they can sort their grades out after expelling the grade risks. It's more common than you think and explains why Delta isn't COBing even though they need to.
2. I'd say it's about 50/50 but given the choice, girls go APhi over DG
3. Kappa is solid, ADPi is where the girls who got cut from Theta go.
4. Pi Phi is weird. Super desired, super well liked, top three without a doubt but they don't do much? They have a type and it works so I'm not one to question it.
5. AXO is on pace to replace ADPi in about five years. They're on a roll.

Ok I've seen your theory like 5 times already, you might be right, we don't know because tridelt isn't saying anything. I do know that tridelts seniors are very pissed about the crappy recent classes and that caused a lot of problems but you're right, their grades were higher this term than usual so it's a solid theory. Whatever the reason tridelt isn't proud about it or we'd be hearing about it.

AXO is already better than ADPi because they actually have decent social skills. My opinion.

I think her theory is a pretty solid one. My house did the same thing a year ago but we didn't have enough girls expelled to warrant a new pledge class. But our numbers took a sharp drop for a semester while we got rid of the girls who weren't making grades. You agree to make and maintain grades when you pledge, maybe Delta just got too relaxed about letting girls slip by without making grades and finally decided to do something.
But yeah, you're right. They won't tell us anything. We'll just have to wait and see if their grades/numbers improve this time next year to see if it's because of explosions or because something is going on with Delta.

It puzzles me how people can be so oblivious as to why certain girls would die to join certain sororities. Girls who want in Tri delta, APhi, and GPhi aren't the same girls who want in Kappa, ADPi, Theta and XO. There are different appeals to those groups. My friends who are in kappa, adpi, xo, and theta are not in those sororities because they got cut from top houses, it's because their views and interest aligned together. Newsflash not every girl wants to be in a top, super pretty, flashy house. It's intimidating and some girls aren't comfortable in that setting or are just simply looking for more than looks and popularity. If I had a dollar for how many times I heard a girl dropped rush because theta, adpi or kappa cut them I'd have a pretty good night at the bar. Don't get me wrong I'm sure Tri delta and GPhi have left many girls in tears after cutting them, but if you think they are the only ones who are super desirable you're delusional.

I agree with your main point that they are very different girls but ADPi's are girls who were cut from Theta and Kappa's are girls who got cut from XO. You can't put those 4 on the same level. And the same goes in reverse, when you say people don't cut ADPi for APhi hell yea, a lot of girls have and continue to because for some girls, ADPi doesn't appeal to them in the slightest. Even as a fallback I'd personally have rather been a APhi or probably even a GDI than be an ADPi.

I got cut from only one house all of rush, and it wasn't Theta, I cut them after 7 party day. I preffed ADPi over Pi Phi. It is all who you connect with and I couldn't be happier.
