GreekGirl604, you will find as many answers as SK has active chapters. Unfortunately, these threads usually end up with a few hurt feelings when someone posts the "truth".

There are SK chapters with the best reputations on campus, the greatest girls, the superstars that everyone loves to be and be with. There are SK chapters that do well in academics, or athletics, or sisterhood, or philanthropy, or recruitment, or retention, but can't put the whole package together. There are SK chapters who do quite well, but because they are smaller or different, they don't get noticed in the campus big picture. There are also SK chapters who can't achieve quota and a stable membership; because they are perceived inadequate for whatever reasons, or have the "bad rep" on campus, or whatever. You'll find SK chapters who used to be top tier but now are lowest tier, and vice-versa. I can personally vouch for one SK chapter that used to be the lowest of the low tier on a campus for well over a decade. Now they are securely top tier and have maintained there for over a decade. From this example, let me assure you that reputations CAN change. Having said all of that, Hopefully SK is best for YOU and your sisters, and really, isn't that all that matters?

Panhellenically,
Christin
