Absolutely because then we could gloss over what really happens during recruitment and pretend it's all happy sunshine and ponies land. Give me a break, anonymous was actually honest. I know for a fact that when I told a friend (who was a sigma kappa alum) what I'd loved about one chapter I visited, the same thing managed to occur at sigma kappa. Exactly what happened with the interest spiel in this documentary.
Recruitment is ridiculous and shallow and we all know it. There's no way you can get to know a person from spending 45 minutes collectively over one week, especially when you do have 300 girls coming through. Does it really matter that one woman was brave enough to come straight out and say it? It's not like they're not judging us either. As much as we tell them not to go through with preconceived notions about each chapter, it's going to happen.
I also liked Allie's cynicism because that's the way I felt during recruitment but at the same time I still wanted to be in a sorority.
