As far as I'm concerned choosing something like a sorority is not solely based on using someone's brain. If it is a mutual selection process and I am not in it because my instincts tell me otherwise, then I'm ignoring one of the most basic instincts. Your feelings and your brain are connected and I'm sure that you have not gone through with something because something inside of you wasn't making you feel right about it. I had no expectations going into recruitment except to enjoy myself and keep an open mind---which I did. But again if I'm not feeling good about something (let alone something that costs hundreds of dollars that no one is giving me) I want to feel as good about that decision as possible. Just because someone tells you "it might get better," what about all the girls who followed that advice and aren't happy at all. So this is my conclusion after I did USE MY BRAIN. So you can go and use your brain to stop making general assumptions about someone based on very little knowledge because right now you're judging a book by its cover.

As I've pointed out to you, recruitment is VERY fake, and you aren't experiencing a true picture. Your here on GC asking a lot of women with a lot more experience than you for advice, and we're telling you that you are being too closed minded. Maybe because we have seen this before. You didn't see it out to the end (which would not have cost you a penny, BTW). Go back and read threads about not getting your first choice. You're arguing with women with decades of experience. We've seen it all. The biggest mistakes are made by people who close their minds to the process, not the women who follow it through to the end. No one is saying you have to sign a bid card.
