My2Cents:Thank you for your candor. I think it is good to hear that from someone who is in a top tier house as well as those who may not be.
Re: Gamma Phi Beta: the sorority has a great national reputation and they have done very well at many southern schools where they started new chapters, UGA included. Being a very southern girl myself, having relatives all across the southern states and cousins who were in sororities at Bama, I think it is very ignorant for anyone to speak badly of a house. I hope GPhiB continues to thrive there and surpass the expectation of any naysayers. As for some of the houses having some snobby attitudes toward newer sororities. I learned this from being at a big SEC school in a very well established sorority: we had advisors and juniors/seniors speak to girls in our chapter who started to talk negatively about other sororities. They explained how such behavior perpetuates stereotypes, rumors and is just very unpanhellenic. In addition, they wanted the girls in our house to be more ladylike and humble, and be secure enough in themselves that they did not feel the need to bash others. To be above that type of behavior, if you will.
