Well now that I'm no longer dating a Phi Mu, (it was just a bad situation), and i've been here a while I can now answer this question.
Phi Mu here at UNL is kinda the Invisible sorority. No one really hear's that much about them. Part of this stems from the location of their house on campus--it's not on greek row so it's not a part of a lot of the intergreek shenanigans (composite stealing, serenades, etc.) They have a reputation for being a house that is for the atypical (or maybe just poor) sorority girl. No Kate Spade bags, or tiffany bracelets. I know that my ex chose it b/c of she enjoyed quote "that when I went in there I didn't get that 'ohhh look at my manicured nails' attitude I got at the other houses". That sums it up pretty well. Further b/c they arent' the ugliest, or the most gorgeous, and they are middle of the pack in grades, they don't stand out. Apparently the beta's haven't had a social function with them in 3 years--no froshes, sophs, or joint parties--nothing, although we will have a frosh this year b/c their new member social chair is a sophomore who rushed this year and she has a lot of friends in our sophomore class.
I guess in all honesty they have kind of a second tier reputation at least with the Betas. They definetly arent' a house that we feel we NEED to do a function with, and I guess they feel the same way.
