Chapter is at the same time on the same night every week. Sometimes it may take longer than others, but for the most part you can plan around that. As far as maybe not wanting to go to other events, I don't know about sororities, but for fraternities, they're not all mandatory, in fact the only ones that are are usually brothers only or philanthropy events. You don't have to close yourself off to the rest of the world. I have many friends in other fraternities, or in none at all. Of course, the guys I hang out with most are in my house, but joining a fraternity seems a lot different than joining a sorority, from the point of rush anyway. I would say if you don't feel like you can give 100% to a group, don't join. Wait until spring or next fall if you don't click with a group of girls. You sound like the type of girl that wouldn't settle for whatever you can get (I know this sounds harsh, but to me that's what the sor. rush process sounds like it can be at times. i don't mean that completely, but it's the best way I could think to say it) Anyway, just make sure it's a group you feel comfortable with. When I joined my frat. I made friends with the guys first, so they were who I wanted to hang out with and do stuff with before I joined, so I didn't feel an obligation to do it. I just wanted to! I hope my ramblings are of some assistance.
