1) In all honesty, every group on any campus is going to have negative stereotypes. There were 9 on mine and based on "reputations" all had something negative about them. Don't even concern yourself with that crap. Join for the people, not the popularity.
2) When you first join, you will feel disconnected from some of the sisters. Heck, I didn't feel truly connected to some of my sisters for almost a year. But like adpiucf said, if you still have serious doubts, don't initiate.
3) As for the mixers.... here's my viewpoint. Don't worry about the "status" of the fraternities you are mixing with. The most important thing is if they are fun. My GLO tended to have mixers with the same groups all the time. These guys weren't considered the "top" groups but who cares! We always had a good time and these guys were great guys. The status shouldn't matter. If the status is the most important thing..... then that's a problem.
