There was a famous Newsweek(?) article several years back, talking about how, especially in middle and high school, there famously are alpha girls, the queen bees; and beta girls, who tend to be followers. People often think that’s the whole social scene, but there is another whole category, gamma girls, who are the ones who manage to flip between groups and have friends in multiple circles and not be overly affected by all of the petty drama between the alpha and beta girls. That’s a goal!
Then, of course, my wonderful sorority was born in 1908.
