Agreed. Most tent talk is rumor based. ABCs only date DEFs could not be true on most campuses, because 9 times out of 10, the sororities are waaaay bigger than the fraternities, so unless the ABCs were down for some sort of "sister-wife" situation, sorry, but that dog don't hunt.

Ooh, I have some and I haven't even gone through rush yet. These are just the rumors that I've heard on campus in my year of school, but I'm not going to repeat them or let them influence me come August.

ABC only hangs out with each other and no one else-considering I NEVER saw these girls wearing letters even though they're the largest chapter on campus, it wouldn't surprise me if this one was true. ABC also apparently only gives bids to Southern girls, despite the fact that I've seen ABC letters on cars with Massachusetts, Illinois, and Oregon license plates.

JKL will give anyone a bid and is desperate for more girls-unfortunately, this is the smallest chapter that is constantly COBing, so it might be true, but since I'm not in them I can't comment on that.

XYZ only dates boys from PQR fraternity-no idea since I've only ever met one XYZ.

LMN is full of drunken party girls-this one was actually told to me by a member of LMN, who showed me an album full of unsavory spring break pics posted by one of her sisters on Facebook.

DEF gives you weed brownies during pref-somehow I doubt this one is true...:rolleyes:

The comments in bold make me think that you're already somewhat influenced by these rumors...

Alright, I will admit that a member of a sorority telling me to my face that her chapter had a bad reputation and showing evidence didn't really help me, but I'm at least going to try. I suppose being on campus for a year didn't help, because it allowed me to form my own opinions as well as hear others'. I hope that every group, rumors or no, does wonderfully during recruitment and succeeds, and I also hope that I find the place that's best for me.

This thread is hilarious!

ABC gives you a bid as long as you come to one event
DEF & XYZ pledge together during Hell Week (specifically, naked in the woods by the athletic fields--gasp!)
