Regarding tent talk: Yes, my daughter knew some frat boys who's opinions that she may or may not have valued. But in one house she looked at the pictures that they put up of events. She LISTENED to what was importent to the sisters. In one house the discussion turned to sports. (My daughter happened to be a nationally ranked player in a sport, so she was comfortable with participation in sports.) One house specialized in song girls,(What if you have two left feet?) another spoke of frequent luxury/exotic trips. (What if you aren't in the position to go to Africa for spring break?) The tent talk that the Reluctant One listened to centered around her comfort zone. For some pnms all they hear is how socially regarded the house.

She had no trouble ranking (see I got that part right as opposed to dropping) a top tier house lower than a so called middle tier house higher. Virtually all the girls "know" the social tiers after a minute and a half. The trick is to establish your own tiers. (That's the mom talking btw.)
