Perceptions of orgs change from campus to capmus. I know that on some campuses, Sigma Kappa is a top house while on others, it's not. I just can't believe that people would be so lame as to worry so much about being the "loser" sorority. To me, it is simply in the eye of the beholder.
And this is exactly how you are completely missing the point. It is in the eye of the beholder. Exactly. Go ahead and sit there on your high horse (and why not enjoy some of this virtual popcorn that everybody thinks is funny enough to post about 900 times) and judge someone because she has different priorities and desires when it comes to sorority membership. Hey, it's great that you think friendship is the most important thing about sorority membership. Maybe you'd be happy to hang around with a bunch of dorks who are outcasts on campus. GOOD FOR YOU, but you're out of line to call someone out for wanting something different. IT'S IN THE EYE OF THE BEHOLDER. People want different things. How does it matter if the OP's organization is hotter than festering poo on other campuses if she isn't there? It doesn't -- and it doesn't matter that you or anybody else thinks her concerns are lame or pathetic or whatever.
