My school was the U of S Carolina and I recall way back in the late 1980's you could tell almost 100% of the time which sorority a girl was in by how she looked. Yes we had the fat sorority and the ugly one and the one with all the homecoming queens. Rushing at U of Sc could be a traumatic thing if you did not meet the right "look." As shallow as it was, it was very much the prevalent idea at the time. In fact, I distinctly remember how nasty it could be. There was a girl on campus who was a quadraplegic and used a motorized wheelchair. She also had a sorority canvas bookbag attached to the back of her chair with XYZ letters embroidered on it. When I went to the COB party for this group, one of the FIRST things I was told was that that poor girl WAS NOT a member of their sorority and they were very angry she had gotten a hold of their bag.
