Indeed. We've had so many girls at my school throwing themselves at a particular fraternity trying to be their big Sweetheart. So many of these girls think the best way to do this is sleep with all of them.
I became the TKE Sweetheart by just being friends with a lot of the guys. Over the past 2 years I've gotten to know several of them and spent a lot of time with them. I have a great deal of respect for them as a fellow Greek (this isn't to say an unaffiliated woman cannot be named a sweetheart). But I wouldn't say it took a lot of "time". I've been dating one of their brothers for the past 2 1/2 years, and I was their Homecoming Queen freshman year, but other than that, it was just a matter of hanging out with my friends. I don't think I did anything special. I did anything a good friend (or girlfriend) would do. The other girl who was Sweetheart this year with me (we tied lol) is the exact same way.
For the first time this year, we had a Bordeaux Beau. We picked a brother of Pi Kappa Alpha who had been our Homecoming King last year, our entry into Big Man on Campus, and he was instrumental in fixing up our new house. At the end of the year we just voted and he won (probably by a landslide).
