We did have high school sororities and frats at just about every high school in my city. I had an interview with one in the 10th grade. I so called "made line". As I was going through the process the big sisters were telling us to do all kinds of things from buying them goody bags to saying degrading things about ourselves. We couldn't wear makeup, jewelry,talk to boys, etc. I dropped soon because I had more respect for myself than that. After I dropped they told me "you shouldn't have done that because we were just about to be easy on you." It just wasn't worth it to me.
A lot of these individuals do carry these ideas and attitudes on to college. It's a sad thing. Maybe some sororities and fraternity members can educate these high school students.
