I thought I had posted on this thread already, but I just did a review and I found that I hadn't!
My decision was almost totally based on what the TKEs I was friends with (I was dating one seriously too). They had some friends in one chapter who were rushing me hard and I couldn't stand them and they were known as the "ugly" chapter, so they were out. Another chapter was very small and were referred to as "XYZ who?". The third chapter had a rep as "sluts". I didn't go any parties for the first two (recruitment was way different back then). I did go to the third one for first rounds, and to Alpha Gamma Delta. Not a soul spoke to me at #3. Not one sister! Now, the fraternity boys had said "The Alpha Gams are the stuck up ones. They're smart and they won't sleep with us". I loved the girls there as I was going through recruitment and was impressed with all the leadership roles they had on campus (our President was the President of student government, etc.). Anyway, I wanted to be the smart, stuck up, student leader who didn't sleep with every fraternity boy that showed interest, so I stuck with Alpha Gam for the rest of the time and did an ISP. I did find it humorous that #3 kept inviting me back to their parties, even to pref, when they couldn't have even known who I was since nobody spoke to me at the one round I went to! Later I realized I would have been happy with XYZ who? too, but I can't imagine being anything but an Alpha Gam now.
We had one girl ISP us who was a legacy of another chapter. Legacies were VERY rare on our campus so it was a big deal. She purposely didn't want to be in the same chapter as her mom. She ended up being my sister-daughter.
