Basically, we seem to be out of the Greek Life loop. I don't feel that the guys are very interested in hanging out with us. I also know that the trash talking about other sororities can't be a good sign in terms of how we connect with the sorority. (How are we supposed to connect with other sororities if our leaders refer to some other groups as whores).

My expectation was that my affiliation would lead to more interaction with greeks in general, but instead, the sorority would rather just be with each other and not give much effort to put themselves out there.

By the way....girls are hesitant to join because they wonder what our purpose is...besides just being a clique who hangs out together.

Bottom line...I hate this. I know our school isn't as greek friendly as some of the big south/midwestern schools, but it would be nice if we as a group actually felt unity amongst each other rather than be a clique who no one cares to know.

hope this helps.

I get what you are saying - I wish groups could be more unified on our campus too. There's definitely a lot of issues, and some groups in particular are very isolated.

If no one else in your group but you is willing to make an effort to change things, you are really going to be fighting a battle, but that's great that you see the worth of the battle. Maybe you see the benefit more than others in your chapter (and maybe even realize the image your chapter has more than they do) because of your involvement on the inter-group board you mentioned. If you could somehow get more members involved in things like that, then it might help encourage them to want to do fun inter-group activities.

Good luck
