Blonde, definitely go with where you feel most comfortable, but don't expect not to feel the peer pressure starting to influence you somewhat. It's a very intense week and everyone and their mother is sharing her opinions with you. Unless you're completely antisocial and don't get to know your fellow PNMs (something I doubt you would do!), you will feel this pressure, and you will be influenced, to some degree. Just a friendly caution.
TN mom-- your thoughts are spot-on. Tiers don't change drastically, but every 4 years or every time there is a colonization or chapter closing or a major internal chapter crisis that explodes outward, there is a definite shift in the tiers. That being said, the tiers really don't matter much. Every sorority shares similar ideals of sisterhood, service and scholarship. They all have social events with other groups. You can date who you want, fraternity man or non-Greek. You can be friends with anyone you want, Greek or not. The members in each chapter are not cookie cutter-- they come from all walks of life, cultural backgrounds, races, academic histories and goals, etc. Anyway, best of luck, Blonde--when is your recruitment?
