I'll say this...when I went through I am positive I could've been in the "top" sorority on my campus (it's not a competitive campus), which is mostly fit, blond, tanned, and pretty girls, especially pageant girls. I did have a bunch of unfair stereotypes about them, but even if I did have more in common with them than I did I wouldn't have felt like I fit in as well as everyone else...I wasn't blond, tanned, and certainly didn't do pageants. It sounds shallow but who isn't at 18? I would've felt like I had to spend every moment looking my best just to keep up and be mediocre in that chapter...the chapter I joined was more diverse and I felt like I wouldn't have to worry nearly as much about my appearance just to fit in. That kind of thing matters when you're a freshman going through rush.
