I've been around sororities long enough to know that during recruitment, ANYTHING is possible and NOTHING is guaranteed. Sororities will pledge the most...interesting...new members and drop the most fabulous. You never know.
Remember...at all but a handful of schools, Greeks are still a fairly small percentage of the students. And there are PLENTY of things to do besides sorority/fraternity.

We have begun to do this at the tea our alumnae Panhellenic hosts for high school graduates in the spring. But I can tell from the look on their faces that they think nothing like that will happen to them! Sadly...it does, to at least 3 or 4. I just hope they remember what we said...
