I'm going to have to agree with KSUViolet on the fact that when someone tells me they went to such-and-such school, my first thought (and sometimes response is), "Oh, my sorority has / had a chapter there."

You also know you're in a sorority when someone (guy or girl) mentions they are applying to an SEC school or a school like Indiana and your first thought-aside from telling them what a good choice in schools they've made is, "Wow, that's a really tough recruitment." After that thought, if you're talking to a young woman, you instinctively tell her, "You're going to need recs if you go through recruitment there," as you determine whether or not you would write her one.

You also know you're in a sorority when someone (particularly a speaker) mentions they were Greek or that they attended a university where you have a chapter and now you're wondering, "I wonder if that person is a sister."

That happened the other night at a Junior League meeting. The President is the most bubbly Alpha Phi (from the Alpha chapter) and she and I are both all about our GLOs. When a member got up and mentioned she was Greek, our ears perked up. Our President, once she stepped back up to the podium said, "For those of us sorority girls in the audience (then she looked at me and winked) we'd love to know which sorority you are from." She answered Delta Gamma. Even though it wasn't MY sorority-I was still pretty excited!
