It is likely it is Historically Jewish (is there only one in the NPC after all the mergers?) there is also an NPC sorority which is Historically Catholic and I've met a few Protestants who would describe Catholicism as a Religion that they do not belong to.

AEPhi and SDT are both historically Jewish.

At least reading this article makes it abundantly clear why her sparkling resume and professional rush pictures didn't get her a bid.


I get the impression that for the women, rush week is the most stressful and pledging is easier. For guys, it's definitely the reverse. The men are just looking for guys that they would like to hang around with and who wouldn't be an embarrassment to their letters.

My 65-year-old self would drop her just because by Day 2 she already needs Mommy to come fix things for her.

I always have to laugh at these kinds of “articles.” Poorly written, First World Problems to the nth degree and rife with their own entitlement and classism…yet how DARE someone reject THEM?

OMG there’s a sorority someone can’t afford to join! CHANGE THE SYSTEM! ABOLISH IT!!!!

(Meanwhile we live in a world where a community college in CA is now allowing students to sleep overnight in one of their lots because there are so many homeless students there).

I wonder where this girl is today….if she’s whining to her friends that someone who never babysat had a baby instead of her, or maybe complaining that since she worked harder than anyone else and gave to charity she should have gotten a promotion instead of the person who did.

Maybe she’s on Reddit Antiwork? I just saw a post from someone who was horrified to discover other people at work (presumably doing different/harder jobs) made significantly more than they did. The nerve!
