I got your story mixed up with a non-Carolina story, so I'm posting here the advice I erroneously posted there.
As with all schools, please go into rush with an open mind. Some years there is a lot of fierce competition during rush, and a lot of freshman arrive on campus having heard all sorts of stereotypes about every single house. It always has baffled me that this goes on there, considering how smart UNC women are. You will find just about every major in every sorority, extensive community involvement, and a lot of sisterhood. Maybe there are a few girls in each house that fit the stereotype, but the majority of them are great women. I never met a Greek woman at Carolina who didn't have friends in other sororities. Furthermore, with the Greek community being small at Carolina, relative to other southern schools, you will end up having a lot of friends not only in other sororities but also outside the Greek system. I am hoping the days of tent talk and stereotypes are coming to an end, but if you hear any, please remember that it really is largely a non-issue once rush is over. Find a home where you feel comfortable in your own skin and where you think you can have both a fun and productive college career.
It sounds like MandyPepperidge is more involved in recent recruitment efforts there, so I'll let her be your guide, should you have any questions, but I hope she agrees with me that all the houses have their share of superstars and sweethearts.
Best of luck!
