the fraternities and sports teams are awesome to us... at first it was like pulling teeth trying to get them to mix with us (the national fraternities) but now we have to beat them off with sticks ( lol) we stay loyal to the ones that were there for us in the beginning (the other small locals) and we don't run off and become obsessed with the hot fraternities... its all about moderation....
its still a struggle getting rid of our stereotype... and its a hell of a lot of work getting girls and "competing" with the national sorortities... but when i see my girls and know waht we're about... its worth it...

The same thing has been going on with my sorority since like last year since we were founded and now that the particular sorority knows that our numbers have shot up (I believe more than theirs), they've gone back to like trashing our fliers and other childish things. I've pretty much gotten over it. Im local and dern proud of it. I wouldn't have it any other way.
