honestly. you people are just blatantly RUDE. first of all, i didn't know anything about sororities before i went to college, and that doesn't make me stupid. i would have had absolutely no idea whether it was kosher to ask about national reputations or not.. i can't believe one of you actually insulted this girl's intelligence for asking about national reputations. give me a break.

secondly, sororities DO HAVE DIFFERENT NATIONAL REPUTATIONS. i know you all would love to deny it, but it's true! while, obviously, it is not going to be the only thing to consider during rush, or maybe wouldn't be considered at ALL by one of you, it is perfectly logical and normal for someone to at least be aware of the stereotypes before going into recruitment. if you are caught between one sorority and the other and truly cannot choose between the two, and the first has an amazing national reputation with strong alumni clubs, especially in the region where you live, and the second is known for being much smaller with no alum clubs where you live... don't you think you should at least be aware of that in order to make an educated decision?

honestly, if i were reading this i would never want to be a part of any greek organization.

to the original poster: i pm'ed you. also, don't think that everyone in greek organizations is so rude- no one in my chapter would act like this to someone interested in rushing.

Pretty snippy for such a new poster. I'd really be sad if you were't part of any greek organization.
