Someone once remarked on GC that everyone in Mississippi seems to know everyone else there and I was often astounded by how true that seemed. Sorority members from the coast would talk about how they knew these 3 girls from Tupelo from camp or those 2 girls from Laurel from a pageant. I often felt that some of the sororities went into rush with their bid list already made out.

A PNM had better have something incredible that makes her stand out if she doesn't know any Greek women before rush.

There are 6 sororities but State has lost 4 since I was there.
Carnation - Do they have the same issue as has been discussed about Ole Miss and other schools, i.e. PNMs will only consider certain houses? What groups did they have that closed?
