I think those lists are hilarious. Because I agree with the directions, for the most part, and as a recruitment advisor, I can tell you that this is the way it works at a lot of schools.
The replies on HuffPost, though, are irritating to me. I shouldn't be surprised at the comments from GDIs who don't care to understand Greek Life, but seriously, are they trying to tell me they don't wear different clothes to, say, an interview (i.e. round 1-2 of Formal Recruitment) than they would around the house or out bar hopping?!?! I don't think so. You don't want to look frumpy when you want to make a good impression, and neither do college women.
