At one school (NOT an AZ school) "if your father doesn't make $$$/your family doesn't own a private island" etc. (indicating massive wealth), you'll get dropped from EEE/RRR/ whatever".
I too have heard the "all the pledge classes have already been selected prior to recruitment starting" rumor. That one absolutely cracks me up. Why don't we just skip recruitment and select all our classes that way? We'd save so much money, the stress levels would plummet, everyone could stay home until classes started instead of working their butts off all summer and coming back to campus when it's 2000 degrees and muggy (or -2000 degrees and ice everywhere).
At UltraCompetitive U, the first round the actives just sing and clap and dance because they don't need to talk to any of the PNMs; they already know who they want to invite to second round parties.
If you're not "pretty/skinny/tanned/blonde" forget about OOO and PPP. WWW only takes the smartest PNMs, if you don't have a 4.0 or close to it, they'll drop you. All the ______ (fill in the blank) girls pledge UUU. And so on and so on.
For the love of Mike, this thread is really funny, and yet very sad at the same time.
