Sorority question... (join a sorority as a junior?)
 

ok well i want to join a sorority but im going to a community college for 2 years then transfering to a university to complete my studies, would it be okay to join a sorority as a junior?

yes

Maybe. Maybe not.

You ARE allowed to rush and pledge as a junior.

You can't pledge if you don't get a bid. It depends on campus culture.

Don't assume anything.

You ARE allowed to rush/pledge as a junior. That's not saying that the OP WILL get a bid.

Right. You are allowed to RUSH, but you can't PLEDGE if you don't get a bid. :rolleyes:

Is there a secion of the Green Book that says juniors are not able to pledge/go through the new member program?

You still haven't answered my question: where does it state that juniors are forbidden from pledging?

Also, you're making an assumption that the OP is referring to NPC sororities. No one is being OMG SUPER SUPPORTIVE NO MATTER WHAT, but you also don't need to unnecessarily crush their hopes with your semantics.

Take the stick out of your ass.

LMAO

It doesn't say that juniors are forbidden from pledging. That wasn't my point. Are you that stupid?

I don't care if you're a freshman, sophomore, junior, or senior. You can't fucking pledge a group if you're not invited to join. What part of that don't you understand? Don't be all Green Book on me, you piece of shit.

LOL

You can't understand your own posts? Your response to "Yes, juniors are allowed to pledge" is "Maybe. Maybe not." -- you don't see how that can be seen as "In some instances, juniors are not allowed to pledge," huh?

Again, take the stick out of your ass.

I'm sorry you misunderstood my post.

Stick out of my ass? Is that the best you got?

Man, today's GC mafia is really weak.

I'm sorry that your Bitch meter is on "high" today.

And GC Mafia? Really? WOMP

The OP's question was if she could join as a junior. Based on her post, she was concerned that being an upperclassmen would eliminate her as a possible candidate for membership...

But you responded with this:

.. which isn't true, because she IS eligible. Which is what Splash said here:

Then you started talking about not being able to pledge if you don't get a bid (which no one ever brought up).

No one assumed anything.

knight_shadow kindly re-stated this and emphasized both Splash's point, and yours:

You continued on with your point (with an unnecessary smiley..)

Then knight_shadow asked a question...

And you flipped out.

Calm down. Seriously.

Have a nice day, Fred.

OMGAWWWWDZ

SHE KNOWS MY NAME FROM MY TWITTER PROFILE

*locks doors and rolls up windows*

Oh shut up you d-bag.

Only if you promise to come visit me, since we're on a first name basis.

I'd have to bring Senusret along.

LOL

Dumb bitch.

No thanks, I'm good.

:p

IT WASN'T NOT FUNNY!

Back to the OP.

Yes, juniors can go through recruitment and many are pledged. Even many of the most competitive campuses are establishing a junior quota.

Enjoy your first two years at community college. Get involved, keep your grades above a 3.0 (some chapters have even higher gpa requirements depending upon the campus profile), watch what you have out there on social networks and guard your reputation.

If you are going to a super competitive greek campus (usually thought to be clustered in the southern areas of the country), start now looking for women that can write a recommendation for you. If your campus is super competitive you will need a recommendation per house.

I am sorry for the rudeness and foul language that appeared on the board. At least it was not directed at you, as sometimes happens. You would think that a young woman who has graduated from college and joined a sorority would have a better grasp of the English language as well as a sense of decorum.

Most hilarious thread on GC of the day.

Pshaw.

Fred? Really? I'm a little disappointed. Ima need you to sign "I'm like Fred Flintstone, I can make your bed rock!"

I thought the same, until I got to the Fred part.

YUM! The Rock is so hot.

This will be my work signature starting tomorrow.

Keyboard courage is really something, huh?

I still think k_s is hot! ;)
Oh, and haha, that ws a typo. SING, not sign. But if you want to sign, please say "Yabba dabba do, k_s."

lmao at all of this

Creepy
 

Regardless of whether or not his name is on a linked Twitter account (or whatever), I feel like THIS is crossing the line. I'm not saying KS says anything that would be offensive or anything he should be embarrassed by but, if everyone liked the world to know them by name, they would place their name in their username. Once again, I realize you may be able to find out his deepest darkest secrets if you click on a link that takes you to his "KS's deepest darkest secrets Facebook/ Twitter page with poor privacy settings" but, it isn't for YOU to decide whether or not he has placed too much info in OTHER areas of the internet.

By doing what you did, it was borderline creepy.

It would be okay to go through rush as a junior. Any female who meets the grade point requirements and is not already a sorority member is permitted to go through sorority rush/recruitment. However, going through rush is no guarantee that you will receive a bid, which is an invitation to join a sorority. It is more difficult at some schools than others for juniors to receive bids.

Apropos timing, since the Rock is back for Wrestlemania.

I blame knowing that on my husband.

So, who is "CoCo" anyway? Because she appears to be a sock. She joined, jumped right into conversation with all typical GC lingo including QFPing someone. Then pulls the crazy e-stalker bullshit of the dreaded "first name drop." Claims to be in an NPC sorority, although never specific about which one - I really don't have time to go through all the posts right now, but who are you, sock?

I thought it was common knowledge that she was a sock? Or at least a username change, ala Dr Phil. She hasn't made an attempt to hide the fact that she's not a new GCer. I think I know who it is, but I'm not publicly outting someone that doesn't want to be outed.
