I too have to agree that part of the allure of being in a sorority is the fact that you share a bond with thousands of women worldwide..however, if the situation arose where i had to choose between pledging DZO and SigmaAEPI..i would pledge sigma all the way..after seeing the way DZO treats their pledges/how their pledge program is run, theres no way in hell you could pay me enough to be treated so poorly in hopes that one day i would be deemed worthy enough to be considered their sister and/or friends. f that.

I would have to say a big NO . Especially with the way this seson is turning out....I would like to think that I have a little more self respect for myself and wouldn't go through all that crap and all the hoops that DZO and SCO are making their pledges jump through. I personally don't think that being a brother or sister is necessarily proved by putting up with a bunch of BS as a pledge/new member...it is proven as you continue your involvment in the organziation and grow as a person. Plus having cameras follow me arouhnd constantly....no way.

This is just me...but I wouldn't join a local. I like being a member of a National organization, I think Nationals tend to be better organized, and I like having Sisters all over the country. That said...I would join Sigma. The DZO girls seem like my friends, but I don't really like the sorority itself! Sigma seemed more concerned with sisterhood...DZO seems more concerned with making the 'pledges respect them.' Granted it's only been a few episodes but geez! The DZO girls get offended by Post-Its...I don't have friends that easily offended! :) I would join while MTV was there. I'm a glutton for my 15 minutes of fame...

Re: Would you rush/pledge any of the Sorority/Fraternity Life GLOs?
[QUOTE]Originally posted by aephi alum
Random question: If you had the opportunity to join one of the Sorority Life or Fraternity Life GLOs (i.e. you were enrolled in the appropriate school at the appropriate time, you met their GPA and other requirements, and you were not otherwise affiliated) ..... 1. Would you rush? I don't think so. I've always been a little particular when it came to being in a sorority. I was NPC/NPHC-bound. I just had to find my group. |
I don't think I would have joined during the filming. I'm very big on my privacy and I would go nuts if I had to ask permission to turn out the lights, etc. in my "home".
I would have only rushed DZO or SAEPi if I felt they were a group I would have fit in with. I would have probably checked them all out, but as for coming back... we'd have to see. I can say that if I had ever been hazed, I would have walked out in a second. I didn't join so some little Suzy Priss could have a power trip. |
i would not have joined either. first of all, i only wanted to join a national. for saepi, i would have felt uncomfortable since i'm not jewish and they made such a big deal of it in the first episode. i would have felt out of place.
as for dzo, if anyone ever called me at 1am to go somewhere i would have cursed them out, let alone try to join their group. |

i would have pledged sigma. honestly, they had their issues, but show me a chapter that doesn't. i don't think i would have joined in the semester that mtv was filming and i know i wouldn't have lived in the pledge house. i would be miserable with a camera following me around all of the time!!! as far as dzo....there is no "rush wardrobe" good enough to get me to pledge that group! i will not tolerate hazing. i would have walked right out after they told me that i had to carry my pledge book everywhere and that they could steal it.....lol....kiss my bum!!! |
a twist to this survey
if your child called you and told you that they were going to be pledging a group that was being filmed by mtv, would you let them do it? it doesn't have anything to do with what particular group they would be pledging, but about doing it on mtv?
my answer- nope. |
After seeing a bit of what each sorority is about, I would rush Sigma, and not DXiO (why do they use Z? Z is for Zeta. It's Xi!) The post-it thing was really wierd.

1. Would you rush?
Not sure if I would have rushed or not. If I did rush it would only have been with SAEPi. I would have walked out of DZO the first time they tried anything close to hazing with me. why would I want to join an organization that is essentially putting me through h--l then saying the want to be my sisters and friends. I don't think so. At SAEPi most of the drama was just the new members creating drama among themselves. 2. If so, would you rush: (a) before the MTV semester, so as to be a brother/sister during filming? (b) during the MTV semester, knowing you'd be on national TV? (c) after the MTV semester, after things quieted down a bit? After things had quieted down a bit would be best 3. If you pledged during the MTV semester, would you want to live in the pledge house? Maybe. 4. Would I let my child pledge during MTV filming? I would strongly discourage them doing it but I would have trust in how I had brought them up and let them make their own mind up. Then I'd let them know I'm there to pick up the pieces after its all over if they did decide to join. |
1. Would you rush?
I definitely would not rush DZO. I might rush SAEPi, but I'm not sure -- I would definitely have to get to know them better first. I'm not sure I would have fit in with their group. But if I had gone through rush and decided I liked them, I would have pledged. 2. If so, would you rush: (a) before the MTV semester, so as to be a brother/sister during filming? (b) during the MTV semester, knowing you'd be on national TV? (c) after the MTV semester, after things quieted down a bit? I would have done any of the three. 3. If you pledged during the MTV semester, would you want to live in the pledge house? No. 4. Would I let my child pledge during MTV filming? It's not my choice. If they're over 18, they're old enough to start making their own decisions. |
